Hi Folks,<br>
<br>
I have been moving from <i>XP</i> to <i>XUbuntu</i> 14.04 (over
the last 3 weeks and so newbie status) and very pleased with my
progress so far. Most of my major IT tasks have been transferred
over, and much of my data/projects etc are accessible.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately I have a problem now where my <i>Settings Manager</i>,
that provides <i>Main Menu</i> and <i>Menu Editor</i> has suddenly
stopped working. The <i>Applications Menu</i> in the <i>Panel</i>
are still functioning fine, and reflecting the structure at the time
of the last successful menu edit.<br>
<br>
Now when I click on <i>Main Menu</i> I se a flash of the outline of
the GUI frame and then nothing, and if I click on the <i>Menu
Editor</i> I get nothing at all.<br>
I have been very busy on this project and used both programs
extensively, and found them (along with <i>Panel</i>) to be great
to use, and have allowed me to get my menus better organised than I
was used to with XP.<br>
<br>
I believe the underlying program is called <i>alacarte</i> (?) and
I have tried reinstalling this with <i>Synaptic</i> but to no
avail.<br>
<br>
Can anyone give me some advice on how I might either debug this
situation further or fix it?<br>
<br>
Thank you in advance.<br>
