Well, the idea behind the freedesktop.org standard locations is to be independent of the running desktop. Distributors have additonally used their own mechanism to ensure packages installed by theit package managers appear in the menus (when installing the acroread package on Debian, a menu entry appears in KMenu->Grafics->Viewers) It seems this method failed in your case. As a workaround you can create the entry for one user and then copy the created .desktop file into the appropriate global directory (somewhere in /usr/share/applications for KDE>= 3.2 and somewhere in KDEINSTALLDIR/share/applnk for earlier KDE versions) Cheers, Kevin
