Newbie here. Just wanted to report that installing the deb pkg fixed the menu problem on my eee 1000, too. I also had the problem afterwards of the desktop not displaying icons, not allowing you to save on it, etc, but the gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/session/required_components_list --type list --list-type=string ["windowmanager","panel","filemanager"] command fixed that up. Thanks to all who helped! I thought I was doomed to using the Netbook Desktop mode forever...
