kmenu appear empty because XDG variable environments.

I was made a quick and dirty hack to get working kdm (prepend follow commands to /usr/kde/3.5/share/config/kdm/Xsession): source /etc/profile export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS="/usr/kde/3.5/etc/xdg:$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS" export XDG_DATA_DIRS="/usr/kde/3.5/share:$XDG_DATA_DIRS" export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/kde/3.5/lib" export PATH="/usr/kde/3.5/bin:$PATH" /usr/kde/3.5/bin/startkde exit 0 I think this must be fixed in upstream, sometime. http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=421 > greetings, > Roman -- Serghei
