what do you mean by missing ? empty ?

If this is empty, please take a look into ~/.config/xfce4/desktop and see if menu.xml exists if it's there check its size.
Comment 2 francois 2006-08-12 12:19:51 CEST
i have
etc/xdg/xfce4/desktop.xml
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3398 2006.05.29

is that the right path ??

in fact the menu is not empty, when i click on the app icon the re is simply nothing?
going back to default does not work either

I told you to look in ~/.config/xfce4/desktop ! Does this directory exist ?

May a screenshot could help too

i removed the file ~/.config/xfce4/desktop/menu.xml
and the menu re-appeared, everything is working fine now

i didn't realize that this was a known issue described in the xubuntu Doc

sorry for wasting your time
