Yes, I said that. Do you know how to edit the menu otherwise, as a non-root user? I don't normally login and run desktop apps as root, so I don't really care to edit root's KDE menus. I want to edit my own KDE menus with my normal user account. If I need to be root to do that then fine, I get it.. but none of the attempts I made were successful as I described in my first post:

If there's some other way I'm not trying, then please tell me. Surely I don't have to logout and re-login to KDE as root everytime I want to edit my menu? That's insane.
