Are you using XFree86 or Xorg? Which version? Did you install RPM's or did you compile E yourself? Which version? The menus are almost unreadable? In what way? Bad fonts? Bad graphics? >When I first started > Enlightenment the screen that is supposed to appear first which allows > one to open the help file never appeared. I have no idea what screen you are referring to, but you can always get help from the middle-mouse menu. > Also, I got a couple of the > themes, but none of them work right. Which themes? How are they broken? The desktop images don't appear. What desktop images? By default, E doesn't have desktop icons, toolbar, and all those other Windows, KDE, or Gnome clutter. > > However, part of my gnome desktop shows up and is quite annoying. Have a screenshot somewhere? You have a lot of complaints but you provide almost no information. We are not mind-readers.

Finally, a question that may be answerable. You can edit your $HOME/.enlightenment/file.menu file and customize it to your heart's content. Format is as follows: First line is menu title. Each following line is either an menu item or a submenu call. Ex: "MY MENU" "Eterm" NULL exec "Eterm" "Games" NULL menu "games.menu" The NULL's can be replaced by the path to an icon if you so desire. games.menu is a separate file, named 'games.menu'. You could also install e16menuedit if you need a tool. Check E CVS or Freshmeat for it.
