How do I add/delete modify the menu system on the Fedora Menu Bar, i.e. If I want to add a custom menu to the "Applications/Office" menu how do I do it?
Fedora Core 14 On Gnome 2.32.0
(Linux xxxxx 2.6.35.6-45.fc14.i686 #1 SMP Mon Oct 18 23:56:17 UTC 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux)
This is a bit of an odd problem that's been happening to me recently. My home folder is a version of Fedora old, I've been using the same one between Fedora 11 and 12 (which I'm now using).
When booting up, I notice that my system fonts are not the ones I have manually set. They're the ugly version, whatever exact font it is. It's only when I select System->Appearances from the menu that the system seems to detect my seletions to use Liberation fonts in all areas, and then everything instantly switches to the more visually pleasing Liberation fonts. This is a strange bug, I was wondering if anyone has experienced this or can point me in the right direction?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI want to find a way to bring up the session menu without using the Indicator Applet Session in the default gnome panel. I've figured out how to do this for the main menu with a keyboard shortcut (Alt+F1). And I found Ubuntu documentation here that says Super+Esc will bring up the Sessions Menu in Lucid but it doesn't work for me. I could create a custom launcher if I knew what command would bring up this menu but I can't find any info on this. Basically I want to get rid of the default gnome panel but still have the functionality of the Sessions Menu.Note: I removed the Me Menu from my Indicator Applet Session by running sudo apt-get remove indicator-me in a terminal. Would this be interfering with the keyboard shortcut?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI explain in with an example:
Imagine you want to know which command is carried out when, after executing gnome-mouse-properties, you go to the Touchpad tab and click on "Enable mouse clicks with touchpad".
Another example:
Imagine you want to know the command that is executed when, after running gnome-appearance-properties, you go to the "Visual Effects" tab and click on None.
I've had a look via gnome-system-log in all the log files of the left with no success. Perhaps the commands that run when one changes things in the GUI menus are logged in some other file. Or perhaps they are not stored in any log. In this case there is probably some terminal command to know it, or some program for this.
I think that know that no xorg.conf is used by default this is something to have into account.
I would like to use the keyboard shortcut of <Super>Tab to open the main applications menu.
What is the command for opening the main applications menu? I have searched but cannot find it.
I was wondering, is it possible to open Ubuntu's main menu from the command line? I've been searching for the answer for about 30 min's now but no luck.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI had a problem with viewing webcams on Skype, and after searching I found out that running Skype through the terminal with this command "export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 && skype" makes the webcams work perfectly. What I wanted to do was to integrate this command into the main menu so that I won't have to type it into the terminal (and thus keep the terminal open all the session) every time I want to use Skype. So I edited the command of the Skype button in the Applications menu and put that line instead of "skype", but it gives me "Failed to execute child process "export" (No such file or directory)". I tried editing .bashrc and added the following line:
alias skp='export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 && skype'
Now the command 'skp' works through the terminal, but it gives me the same error message when I put it into the command line of the applications menu.
I've modified by mistake my menu.lst file. Both menu.lst and grub.conf are empty. how to fix this? Is there any command to quickly rewrite those files?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've just installed the xubuntu GUI on my ubuntu server and by default I only see Applications and Places on my top panel. There is no option to add the system menu under "Add new items", so I'm curious as to how to go about it.
On a side note, is there a way I can have the system boot into the original command prompt by default, and how can I enable and disable the GUI at my convenience?
I lost both the application and system drop down menu but was able to get the applications back but having problems getting the system back.

It's a rather embarrassing problem involving the nVidia driver, a laptop, a dock and dual monitors, where ending a gnome session sems to crash the video driver (or even the whole computer, I'm not sure) where I can adjust the contents of the system menu either for the whole system or for particular users?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI just upgraded my Ubuntu 9.10 to Ubuntu 10.04. Part of the Ubuntu 9.10 installation was GParted (version 0.4.5) and I saw, after upgrading to Ubutnu 10.04, there was a more recent version available: 0.5.1.
After installing that version, GParted was still part of the System > Administration menu (just as it was before).
But then I saw the version 0.6.0 of GParted was recently released and there was also a .deb distro available.
After downloading and installing the 0.6.0 version of GParted, the item GParted disappeared from the System > Administration menu and appeared in another menu (Applications > System Tools).
My question: how can I get GParted back as part of the Systems > Administrations menu?
