This is a general bug in Ubuntu/Kubuntu

in any wxPython program (my own, the wxPython Demo...) Menu bars do not display, although shortcut keys, that are defined in the same code lines, still work (ctrl-a for an 'about' dialogue for example). Doesn't matter if the program is invoked from terminal or by double-clicking a .py file.

Added weirdness: Menu bars work fine on the Netbook interface.
Extra added weirdness: When running code from within the Eclipse IDE, menu bars DO show!

Very bad bug. Stops developers from using Python/wxPython to develop for Ubuntu. For me it's a 'find another distro' situation.

All my code works OK on OSX and all flavours of Windows...
