Xfce menu Ubuntu Quantal

[Alf Haakon Lund]

I've been troubled too sometimes by installed programs not showing in 
the menu, and not only on xfce. However, lately I almost don't use the 
menu anymore.

I installed synapse which finds most stuff instantly. Just hit 
ctrl-space and then some letters associated with the program or file I 
want to run and done.

While not solving your actual problem it might be a feasible workaround.
