globalmenu

After installing Eclipse, I wanted to try to enable the global unity menu for Eclipse. Following a guide on the web, I was to make a change to:

sudo nano /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/menuproxies/libappmenu.so

by changing Eclipse to Xclipse.

After making that change, and then running sudo ldconfig.

and even restarting, I can no longer open any application. I just see the application appear on the screen for a split second and then it disappears. So far I have noticed that I can no longer load Eclipse and Chrome.

Anyone know how to fix this? I have tried changing Xclipse back to Eclipse and running the command sudo ldconfig, but it makes no difference.
