Hi Alexander,
This an age old bug/feature of Gnome. It occurs when there is a program
update or software install that adds or repopulates the Gnome menus. If
you don't run Gnome while getting updates or log out and in (of Gnome)
after getting updates or installing programs that add menu entries, your
menus should refresh without scrolling.

Printing header in Firefox -
by Bob Goodwin
I often print pages that I bind and save from firefox. It is supposed
to print the Title and URL as a header on each page however all I ever
get is the very bottom of the letters, not enough to even guess at the
words.
I have tried all the available settings but with no success. Print
Preview shows the header perfectly but unfortunately the printed page
does not.
This problem is peculiar to Firefox, Openoffice prints headers and
footers without a problem. I am running Firefox version 1.5.0.9 and FC6
updated this morning.
Any thoughts on what I might do to fix this?
Thanks.

Nautilus not working propelvy with images
by Andrea Mastellone
Hi everyone,
what is wrong that Nautilus can not handle correctly images, especially
in the png format ?
I have a FC6, regulary updated.
A little example will explain my situation: if you, in a Nautilus
window, go to "Backgrounds and emblems" from Edit Menu, in the section
"Patterns" you will see a list of png thumbnails of the patterns. My
Nautilus doet not show anything :( (if I launch it as root, it works
again, however !).
I have reinstalled gnome, nautilus, ImageMagick, and libpng without any
result :(
What is the library that handles this situations ? Perhaps it works only
as root...
Thanks you in advance,
Andrea

National-character conversion
by Albert A. Modderkolk
Is there a tool that converts, for example, the u-umlaut into the ü
symbol? Would be nice if it could convert any national-language
characters.
Thanks and regards, Albert
