Hello,
I noticed today that the pulldown menus "Org" and "Tbl" remain
empty, even though org mode is loaded and all functions can be
called by "M-x org-...".
Any hints where to look?
using Debian:
dpkg -l emacs\* org-mode\* | grep ^ii
ii emacs-goodies-el 30.5-1 Miscellaneous add-ons for Emacs
ii emacs23 23.1+1-4 The GNU Emacs editor (with GTK+ user interfa

Might be a shot in the dark, but: (Only applicable if you use the gtk
version of Emacs)
gtk 2.18 changed a few things but gtk 2.16 should work from the get-go.
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/unstable/gtk-migrating-ClientSideWindows.html
There you can see that you could try exporting GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1
before running emacs and see if that fixes things.
HTH,
benny

This should work, but it might break apps launched from emacs (e.g. web
browsers). Possibly-better solutions include:
1. Build emacs from CVS
2. OR, take the emacs 23.1 source code, apply the patch I posted to the bug report at
http://emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=4122
and build emacs
Again, this is only applicable if you use the GTK version of emacs.

This does make a difference indeed.
HOWEVER: this immediately raises the question: Why are 2 (in words: two) of
nine menus empty and 7 of 9 are ok as always? I would not in my wildest
dreams expect, that there is different code responsible to draw them menus ...

I guess, I should forward this thread to the debian package maintainer, this
looks like the suspicios tip of some other iceberg.
Thanks for helping!
