[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Martin!

The "Help" menu is OK in all modi.

GTK version is 3.22.30(about-emacs.png)

There is no message in the console when starting emacs from terminal and 
no difference in behavior.

Today I noted very odd behavior. Suddenly i got all the menus in 
org-mode(org-mode.png). When opening a .tex file there was opened most 
of the menus but "command" is obviously inherited from 
org-mode(latex1.png)! and "math"and "ref" were still absent(latex2.png). 
I hope this will give a clue to the solution!
