Missing menus

[Joe Miller]

Hi Derek, I've been trying to think of the same thing myself, but 
couldn't come up with anything obvious, except that maybe a recent 
update has affected something. that was why I posted here, in case 
anyone else had the same problem, but it seems not. I agree, it seems to 
me to be an issue with Gnome, but since none of my other software is 
affected?? I don't know!

The advice on the installation page was to go with the version which is 
supported by my Linux package, which in this case is 1.7.4, hopefully 
I'll get the more recent version when I upgrade Linux.
