First this is dangerous.Kind of...Several people close to me have reported that they lost all content of the menus temporarily. Second it breaks other functionality from the Start-Here button. the closest i gotto have this fixed is by editing the new default-modules.conf like in the post but in the following way A) Save default-modules.conf as something else as backup ( i kept it as a .back and as a .old to make sure , yes im careful :) B) Rename the file with menu editing to default-modules.conf B) In /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/default-modules.conf modify the lines in the # vfolder desktop method section to look like start-here: libdesktop.so system-settings: libdesktop.so server-settings: libdesktop.so Even then when you use the Start Here button on the desktop the System Settings section in the nautilus screen dont work anymore. So it works , kind of , and you should know that it breaks that part at least ( Debatable since all in there is still accessible from the menus on the panel ) and that you should be careful. I repeat several people have told me this wiped the menu content until they logged out then back in . I did try all kinds of combinations to get that functionality back but since im no programmer, the rest i have no idea how to fix : ) Have fun Richard Hebert > On Wed, 2003-04-23 at 20:41, Elton Woo wrote: > > How do I recover the contents of the "Start Here" folder?
