Description Stephane Loeuillet 2004-09-07 10:07:08 UTC 
there are several menu entries in my gnome 2.6 menu that won't display

those are for : vumeter.desktop and reclevel.desktop (both from gnome-media)

if i do a "touch /usr/share/applications/vumeter.desktop", this entry would
immediatly show up in the menu in the MM section (Audio+Video)
but at next start-up, this entry is no more there.

i tried to validate those files with desktop-file-validate (0.8) but it seems
there is no error.

in those file, i see no NoDisplay, no TryExec that could have explained why it
is not displayed in the menu.

This is Fedora Core, right? Please log a bug in bugzilla.redhat.com, product
redhat-menus.

(Its likely that its they are excluded because they don't contain X-Red-Hat-Base
- see /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu for details on how the matching is done)
Comment 2 Stephane Loeuillet 2004-09-07 10:43:40 UTC 
well, no, it is not Fedora Core but a gentoo system
and in fact, i wrote it in the "Distribution/Version:" field when filling the bug.

unfortunatly, it is displayed nowhere (someone to hack the bugzilla template plz)

reopening (gentoo has no such policy like RedHat and Ximian have)
Comment 3 Mark McLoughlin 2004-09-07 11:10:19 UTC 
Apologies, moving to gnome-vfs. See applications-all-users.vfolder-info:

      <Exclude>vumeter.desktop</Exclude>
      <Exclude>reclevel.desktop</Exclude>

Closing this since the vfolder method has been removed. There's a new
implementation in gnome-menus.
