Perhaps you have installed KDE and Gnome in the same machine and this makes your KickOff menu become "crazy": some programs appear two times o are in menus that they shouldn't.

To reppear this, there is a package that is called kmenu-gnome that creates a sub-menu in the main menu called Gnome where all the Gnome native apps are. Like this:

HOWTO install this: (In Linux)
1-Program Source (Gentoo, Sabayon, or all if you want):
http://www.kde-apps.org/content/downloa ... n=31166957
2-Debian package (for Debian, Ubuntu and all that uses .deb packages)
http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.ph ... a03e058b90
3-Fedora (I don't have Fedora, but it should work):
Code: Select all
su -c 'yum -y install kmenu-gnome'


After the install your KickOff menu will be in a better order. In case of you would like to pick some apps from de Gnome sub-menu, you anly hace to edit de KickOff menu and move your apps from Gnome sub-menu to other menus (with total freedom).

That's all!
