Hi israel,
Installed in VB and updated to latest packages:
I'm still seeing the Apps menu not fully populated and Places with nothing in it.
Also 'Reload Desktop' effects still not persisting over a reboot.
Cheers,JackT.

    Hi Jack,

      that is odd... they persist for me.

      I am using virt-manager are you on VirtualBox?

      

      @Nio

      Could you test the basic method on hardware if you have time, and
      see if the menu persists?

      

      Either way I modified a few things.  I think part of the issue was
      an error in another script, possibly causing JWM to stop reading
      things (nice-start was tring to log somewhere I didn't intend).

      I also modified an issue with a 'broken pipe' jwm-places was
      having... which also caused an error which may have been messing
      up JWM.

      

      I will test things here and let you know.  I will update the
      packages and then modify an OBI script in the live session to
      update to the newest versions.... actually it might be a good idea
      to make a script to 'update the system' prior to installing just
      in case we need to make further fixes, the Ubuntu installer asks
      this question of the users as well.

        Also

            just fyi.

            Hi Jack, I just tested and
              found this as well.

              The same is true of the places menu.

              I am not entirely sure why this happens.... :(

              Anyhow, I think this can be addressed soon.

              I will check the update menus script.

              I suppose I could add a one liner into the jwmrc that will
              fix and remove itself.

              not entirely sure why this has issues occasionally.

              

              I might add a double update for menus in order to
              accomplish that.

              

              It might be worth trying to install, and then run update
              menus in the chroot to see if it works.  I will let you
              know.
