Hi folks, Thanks to James Richard Tyrer <tyrerj@xxxxxxx> for pointing me in the right direction. His suggestion works fine. I was originally just replacing /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu. Now that I've moved my configuration into: /etc/xdg/menus/applications-merged/X11-legacy.menu and substituted JRT's version of applications.menu, thing behave the way I want them to. One caveat for others like me who are trying to do this: if you copy any *.desktop files from FC2 into your "legacy" tree, you'll need to edit out the "Categories" lines in the files, otherwise the applications won't show up on the menu. Next up: trying to understand WHY it works....
