Hi WenLong Feng,
I have already written and tested the patches to do this and it works well from my testing.

I know some people already run Notes with an environment variable that achieves the same behaviour: UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0
The above option was required in Ubuntu 11.10 (Natty) since Eclipse RCP menus were not well supported. In Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric) they are working but for Lotus Notes I noticed it would crash.
See video above for more details.

Running it in a wrapper script does not affect it as it uses gtk g_get_prgname, however in this case I noticed that it didn't work as "notes.bin" and would only work with "Lotus Notes".

I am just building a test package for you to be able to see this behaviour in Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric), in 24 hrs you should be able to test it using:
$ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:tellis/generic
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install appmenu-gtk appmenu-gtk3

I would really appreciate your testing to confirm the fix, I have tested quite thoroughly and it works well for me.
