Untitled thread

This is a discussion about Untitled thread in the Everything Linux category; hi this snapshot will explain my problem: In GTK based apps some menu entries (xmms, gmplayer) or directory tree items (gtksee) disappeared. I had a lot of problems localizating KDE and this one emerged at that time.

hi
this snapshot will explain my problem:

http://www.iespana.es/talleresfontarron/gtk-fuentes-error.jpg
 
In GTK based apps some menu entries (xmms, gmplayer) or directory tree items (gtksee) disappeared.
 
I had a lot of problems localizating KDE and this one emerged at that time.
This issue only happens with the root account and one user.
 
Which config files may I have to review?
 
I searched in this forum, and found this out in a post. I could change the fonts, but the problem remains.
 
I don't know what to do...
Thanks in advance.

From your screenshot I take it that you also seem to have a folder without a name. As it is the highlighted folder in GTKSee the idea crossed my mind, that your GTK might eventually be screwed up color-wise.
 
That's just a guess, but maybe if you could tell if the "missing" menu entries do something at all when you move the over them or even click them (highlighting or performing the action that is usually linked with the respective menu). If you don't get a menu-focus when moving the mouse over a missing entry then the problem most likely resides elsewhere. In case you do, the themes and color settings would be a good spot to check some things.
 
good luck

Before anything... thanks
 
When I focus over this missing menu entries, the hightlighting and functionality work fine (the problem is that I don't know what I'm going to do... ).
 
As I told, it only happens with root and another accout... it indicates me that I have any configuration wrong on them.
 
On GTKSee, I proved that the disappearing folders really exist.

maybe the localization data is incomplete for the locale you've chosen?
 
can you choose another locale to see if that's the problem?

hi!
 
I've tried to select another locale, but I don't know how to. I've asked google for information and I didn't found the way (I changed KDE localization, but not gtk's :S).
 
Can you tell me how to change the localization data? I think it could be the problem too.
