Are you sure? The desktop-utils should add both menu entries.

I am copying Rex Dieter on this, but I don't think this is a
kde-redhat problem.

What is meant by "removed the menus in the gnome view"?

Re: kde-redhat menu entries in gnome [In reply to]

I used to have entries for example...

KDE games, Quanta, KDE Tools, etc when logged in under Gnome2. When I
used apt-get and pulled down KDE 3.2 it removed those menu entries. I
use Gnome2 and some other people use KDE 3.2. However, I can no longer
see KDE programs in my menu when logged on through Gnome2.

And I'm sure about not being able to see them. I'll try removing
desktop-utils and re-adding it to see if it fixes the problem.

That could very well be true. It could be that the FC1's version of
gnome doesn't support kde-3.2's notion of vfolders, so menu items don't
show.

I'll have to check against the vfolder standard/specification at
freedesktop.org to determine if this should be classified as either a
kde or a gnome bug.

I just checked, and I'm fairly sure this is due to inadaquacies in Gnome's
vfolder support -> gnome bug. I guess you can either
1. upgrade gnome (ximian?)
2. wait for fc2
3. Or use KDE instead.
