Thread: Applications disappeared from GNOME menus


my problem applications menu empty , preferences , administration no longer appear under system menu.

i'm running 11.04 , use ubuntu classic because prefer gnome interface.

other day trying out various audio/multimedia players installing , uninstalling several programs software center. started play cd in audacious when system crashed. screen went dark computer kept running. ended doing hard reset.

booted , seems run fine except gnome menu messed up. applications menu empty , preferences , administration no longer appear under system menu. (i realize can these through system settings want menus back) furthermore alacarte not run can edit menu contents.

i've tried using 1 of old menu versions in /home/dan/.config/menus outdated , menu editor won't run edit them. doesn't bring preferences , administration.

i've been using commands in application launcher , none of programs show in either. oddly enough, when open properties of file , click on "add" in "open with" tab can see there.

i've tried reinstalling alacarte , gnome-panel , doesn't anything.
i've tried using other panel programs docky , awn have same menu problem.
tried resetting panels defaults doesn't fix problem.

advice?

same problem here! *think* because encrypted home folder
