Dear Indraveni,

which menu are you talking about? The Debian menu (which is accessible
on all windowmanagers), or the Gnome/KDE menu (which contain the Debian
menu as well).

They are handled by different mechanisms... However, I think that it is
a good thing to take care of both.

You can have a look at the following pages to get hints:

Have a nice day,
