Xfce is stable. Changes at the .desktop files in /usr/share/applications (the menu) are processed only after Xfce is restarted or immediately by running `update-desktop-database` as root. I think they are also processed without restarting Xfce once in a while. I don't know if this also applies to the .desktop files in ~/Desktop, but I think so. Heiko
