GNOME - Adding items to menus

[Chee Bin HOH]

For RD9, you can still add menu items to existing menu folder, but you
can not add new menu (folder).

You can edit /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/default-modules.conf to make it
editable.

If you look at /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/default-modules.conf, you will
see that a few vfolder destkop method (applications:, all-applications,
etc) are using libvfolder-desktop-old.so, which makes adding new menu
fail.

You will find
/etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/default-modules.conf.with-menu-editing in the
same directory, just make a backup copy of
/etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/default-modules.conf, then rename
default-modules.conf.with-menu-editing to default-modules.conf.


the library libvfolder-destkop.so uses in
`default-modules.conf.with-menu-editing` is the correct one to make
adding menu possible.

HOH
