Did you retain your settings after upgrading to FC2?

I had lots of problems (couldn't edit the menu, couldn't set file
associations, some submenus completely missing...) so in the end I deleted
my .local directory and now everything seems to work.

It took me a while to find .local - I was looking for something in .kde, so
I did delete a few other things such as .kde/share/config/profilerc - you
might want to try that too. (Of course, copy the files somewhere else -
don't delete them until you're sure it works!)
