Well.......... I've changed my window manager from WindowMaker to blackbox with very little problems (the thing i miss most about WindowMaker is the <ctrl>+<esc> window configuration menu. It was keyboard shortcuts until I read the README and found that they could be supplied by a package [handily in .deb format] named bbkeys from
http://movingparts.windsofstorm.net/bbkeys.shtml that has it's own config utility!), BUT......... Now I have to do some custom configuration with the Debian menu. I had 2 menu problems using WindowMaker but could work around them by using the app-dock. Since I no longer have that luxury I will now have to grapple with them, namely Opera 5.0 (installed from source) and licq (from .deb). I expect a missing menu entry from Opera but not from licq (I've had it on other installs), it has an entry in /usr/lib/menus/ (though it was named licq-ssl which is installed as well) that is as follows: ?package(licq): needs=X11 section=Apps/Net\ title="licq" command="/usr/bin/licq" and should be included in a update-menus when run as root but will not show up in the menu. I have since read the documentation, compared it with other entries in /usr/lib/menu that DO show up in the menu (I added quotes around Apps/Net as the other entries had), renamed it to licq from licq-ssl, checked permissions/ownership (identical to all other entries), copied it to /home/tim/.menu/licq and /etc/menu/licq and after running update-menus had it's entry still fail. Does anyone have a clue as to what I missed? I'd appreciate a heads-up! P.S. I'm not even going to TRY to with Opera until i can figure out what's up with a standard Debian package. ===== Regards- Tim Stetson Whiskey Sour Nuhn O.
