I noticed after installing Xubuntu 14.04.1 at home, there were a whole slew of entries missing on the system menus (the mouse button).
When I brought up the menu editor, menulibre, it showed me lots of things that should have been on the menus as they are marked as "on" but most of them do not appear in the menus at all.
I made some changes in the Other and System menus, and they both disappeared from the menus altogether. I had to re-edit them and then log out and log back in to get them, but they don't stay. The Other menu has disappeared again and I haven't gotten it back by the log-out-log-in method.
This is very Windows style and it simply does not work.
I have tried to find the menu settings configuration file, but I can't tell for sure which one it is or I'd just edit that manually.
Please fix the menus or their editor so they both work together.
If you can tell me how to do this manually, that would suffice.
I've been very happy with Ubuntu and Xubuntu for almost four years now. This setback is extremely disappointing (in Xubuntu 12.04, all of these features worked perfectly).

I expect to be able to edit the system menus and have the edits appear in the menus afterward.
My edits do not appear and other changes occur unexpectedly (like the Other menu disappearing).
