-   Wath you mean with "non standart medias" ? Please ever use Mandriva oficial repositories, its for you own good :)
Are you sure the program is installed ? Try running it via terminal, its just put the program's name in terminal hit enter and it will
run.

-   Hi
What I mean by non standard media are media from the PLF Project that is set
up from the web site ¨http://easyurpmi.zarb.org/¨ as well as the official
Mandriva distribution medias.
The PLF project maintains Mandriva Linux packages that cannot be included in
the official Mandriva sources due to various reasons.
I have run the installed programs from terminal and they work fine but that
would be a pain to do it that way every time I want to use those programs so
that is why I would like the shortcuts in the KDE Menu.

-   Hmm... PLF is ok.
I'm not sure why this is happen.. o workarround would be to use 'kmenuedit' to add the
missing entries.

Regards,
