Have you tried the all famous:
update-menus
(from a command prompt)?


Aside: I tried updating kde and a few other things from the "MCC - 
install - updates" list. Things went slightly awry... Various crucial 
bits of kde were very broken.

Checking through and I'd inadvertently added a mix of some mandrake 
cooker contrib packages that had then skewed a lot of dependancies. Much 
command line typing later working through urpmi for various missing bits 
and I've got a working kde oncemore. Only needed to do one "--allow-force".

Only thing is, I've lost the anti-aliasing for at least some of the 
fonts (:-((

Mandrake 10.2 (under whatever name) should be out in the next couple of 
weeks. I'll fix it all with an upgrade (:-))


Good luck (for me also),
Martin
