Cant stand Unity, tried xcfe, but missed some of the functionality of gnome 2, such as the ability to re-arrange buttons on the task bar. So, I'm giving cinnamon a try. I installed it on my Ubuntu 11.10 machine.
My menus seem to have a serious problem. When I click on the menu button, it can take a long time for the menu to pop up. When I try to edit them using alacarte, it starts out slow and gets slower with each item I move. I can watch the available memory on the machine shrink and shrink until everything locks up. I suspect that the menu xml is malformed. I'd like to take a try at correcting it by hand.
BUT, I can't figure out where cinnamon stores its menu xml files. This should be simple, but cinnamon is new and every search I do for "where cinnamon stores menu files" directs me to links discussing cinnamon's gnome 2 style menus, not where the actual xml is.
Can anyone point me to where cinnamon stores its menu files?
thanks.
