I tried installing that on my N810 with apt-get, also personal-menu_0.4-2 
with dpkg (the latest wants a later libglade). But I can't see how to 
start them. I don't get a popup on the tablet asking which menu I want it 
in. I see the configuration in settings/control panel/personalisation and 
can add a command, but I can't find an icon anywhere in the menus.

I didn't change sudoers; the docs said it wasn't necessary if I didn't 
need to run a command as root.
