I've been away for a while.  I tried out that command, no good.

/etc/xdg/menus/application-merged is *NOT* a symlink on my install.  
Extracting the deb does not help.

I seem to have a kde-essential.menu now, however, it has not fixed the 
problem.  I suppose I'll have to download the Alpha3 CD and see if the 
problem is still there.
