Main Menu

Hi All,

Many a times though we install new packages / softwares - we will not see the shortcuts to them in the main menu.

This post solves that problem.

1. Check if that package is installed or not using gnome-terminal and typing that command.
2. For example if you installed amarok - a music player - and did not find it in the menu bar (Start Menu) -  then follow from step 3
3. Go to System -> Preferences -> Main Menu
4. There under Sound and Video -> Amarok (check box)
5. Check that check box stated in step 4

This step 5 automatically adds Amarok on the menu.

Take care,
Ananth S Gouri
