After apt-get upgrade I have lost all program entries!
![Shocked](images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)
After I have made an upgrade of LINUX I have lost all the program entries in the start menu!
and apparently I have also lost most of the program assosiations, so it is quite diffucult to start any programs.
It appears to be a problem with kde, when I start KDE control center the index is empty!
I hope there is a simple way to correct this, it used to be Knoppix 3.2 now I don't know what it is.
Please help

Try the following: logoff from KDE, then on a console session (say Ctl-Alt-F1), rename your .kde directory: "mv .kde .kde.bkp". Then logon graphically (Ctl-Alt-F7, KDM). Hopefully KDE will re-create a working default profile for you.
If this fails, I once had a similar problem which was fixed by the foillowing tip: http://www.mepis.org/node/view/1806#comment-6638
Hope this helps,

Sorry it didn't work for me, I did get a new menu but now i also lost the console assosiation!
and all the programs are still missing.
The other tip doesn't work either as I am not able to start the menu editor.

Check which KDE packages you've got installed (dpkg -l | grep -i kde |sort). It may be that the upgrade left you with a bare KDE setup, and you need to apt-get some additional parts (eg kmenuedit, kdm, kcontrol...)
