Enlightenment uses the debian menu structure which has per default many
entries and I think the version you are using has had some problems with
icon rescaling. Therefore the longer menus don't fit on the screen at all.

I only have a few very poor hints, you probably already thought of:
- Make a user menu for the applications you want to use.
- The more recent versions of enlightenment seem to handle rescaling better
- Enlightenment has its own mailinglist. You can find it under
www.enlightenment.org. It might be a good idea asking your question
there. The new maintainer of E16 Kim Woelders is really doing a good job
in making it better.
