Hello, It might be worth noting that these menu items work by inheriting. I don't remember the exact order where we apply them in LTSP but it's possible that this user has "negative" entries in its .config/menus/ directory that'd prevent the localapps entries from showing up. Alternatively, some permission issues might be a source for that issue as well. Can you try making a backup of that user's home directory, then empty it completely and try logging in ? -- Stéphane Graber Ubuntu developer http://www.ubuntu.com
