Jun 30, 2010I am not good with the X, How to remove/add entries to the "Application" menu? I am running lucid. BTW, I do not find "/usr/bin/application". Also I do not find "Application menu Editor" under Application -> System Tools. I searched with aptitude and could not find a package relevant for "Application Menu Editor", may be I used wrong keywords.

Sep 19, 2010I know someone posted a sim. query back in 2008, but I'm know getting the same issue in Lucid. I installed the latest updates last night and when I rebooted I found I had what looks like multiple copies of the same kernel entry in the Menu.lst. I've included my file for review. Sorting this out. Otherwise I reckon Lucid is rock solid. I do tend to leave a lot of default entries in commented out. Will this make my boot slower at all?

Just recently the menu displays duplicate entries. The first two entries are repeated (see below). What might have caused these duplicate entries to appear and how to correct them? Before this problem occurred I did not issue any sudo commands.

Apr 2, 2011I see this posted in several places in the past but no answers. If I use UUID in fstab to mount additional partitions I get duplicate entries for the partitions in the Places Menu. I can solve the problem by mounting the partitions by Label ( /dev/sdb2 /mountpoint ) but half of the time grub2 will not mount the drive correctly using this method and will change the volume ID (sdb2 becomes sdf2) .
View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Grub2 Menu Keeps Showing Nonexistent OS Entries / Get Rid Of These?
Jan 24, 2010When I originally installed Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit, I had the following operating systems already installed:
Kubuntu 9.04
Windows 7
Windows XP
Ubuntu automagically created a GRUB2 menu that offered all of these, plus of course itself, which was fine for a while.
Later on, I deleted and reformatted the partitions that had been dedicated to Kubuntu 9.04. GRUB2 has failed to keep up. Despite running "sudo update-grub" multiple times, the GRUB2 menu continues to show entries for Kubuntu 9.04.
How do I get rid of these obsolete entries? The partitions it was on simply do not exist any longer, so I don't know how GRUB2 is picking it up.
I had already edited my fstab file to reflect the new partitioning scheme, so I don't know where GRUB2 is getting the idea that I still have Kubuntu 9.04 installed.

Jun 6, 2010I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 dual booted with Windows XP. Ever since I installed 9.10, I get a long list of OS's (actually, multiple repeats of what appears to be the same Ubuntu install), and I can't get rid of them.I've looked through various tutorials and the GRUB 2 Community documentation (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2) but I still can't get rid of the menu items.I edited the 40_custom file and was able to add the entries I wanted to see, and then chmoded 644 all the other files in the /etc/grub.d directory and run update-grub.The custom entries do appear at the end of the menu now, but the old entries are still there as well.

Ubuntu :: Changing Grub2 Menu Entries Order?
Jun 25, 2010As it stands right now, Grub2 seems to generate menu entries in this order (for my pc)
Ubuntu 2.6.32-22
Ubuntu 2.6.32-22 (recovery)
Ubuntu 2.6.32-21
Ubuntu 2.6.32-21 (recovery)
Windows XP
How can I make it so that Grub generates entries in this order
Ubuntu 2.6.32-22
Windows XP
Ubuntu 2.6.32-22 (recovery
Ubuntu 2.6.32-21
Ubuntu 2.6.32-21 (recovery)
If you're wondering why I care about the order, its because I just installed Grub with an icon based theme. In that situation, it looks silly to have 4 Ubuntu Icons next to each other, and then the windows one at the end.
Ubuntu :: Cleaning Up Dead Entries In Grub 2 Menu?
Jul 18, 2010I have two leftover entries in the Grub2 menu after running update-grub. One is leftover from an Ubuntu installation under Windows 7 referring to a Vista boot. Never had Vista on my system, and if I were to select this option it will lock my computer. Same deal with an older Jaunty boot option - as I have identical worded options one good and one dead option.
If I have to live with these two dead selections on my Grub2 menu I will. But I'd rather get rid of them. I don't want to use an old tool for Grub editing that is no longer workable for Grub 2.

Oct 22, 2010i have been running Kubuntu 10.04 on my primary hard drive, and i have a second 1.5TB HD that i use for storage. so shrunk the secondary HD partition and created a second 50GB partition and i installed Ubuntu 10.10 on it and told it to rewrite the mbr on my primary HD. Where i am at: i took the menu entry from my Kubuntu "grub.cfg" and the entry from my Ubuntu "grub.cfg" and put them in the 40_custom file. so now when i boot-up my computer, it shows both installations at the bottom of Grub2s menu list. with all the menu entries that Grub automatically adds.
What i would like to know is how do i make it so that the Grub2 menu only shows the entries that i add to the 40_Custom file and not the randomly generated list aswell.

Ubuntu :: Duplicate Entries In System -> Administration Menu

View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Redirecting Grub 2 (Bootloader) Menu Entries
Feb 23, 2011I'm familiar with Ubuntu and the like, and have GRUB 2 installed as my boot-loader. I was wondering if there was any way to get one menu entry to be re-directed to another. Specifically, whenever I select my third menu entry, I want it to execute the code on menu entry 10. My reason for doing this would be that after customizing my GRUB 2 menu, I came into the problem of updated kernels. Basically I would like a single "Ubuntu, Latest Kernel" entry that always redirected to menuentry 10, where my latest "Ubuntu, linux 2.6.xx-x-generic" entry is. In order to temporarily solve my issue, I've set my "/etc/default/grub" file's "GRUB_DEFAULT" to "9", although I'd rather not do this.

Jan 12, 2014What I would like to do is, with a right click, have the menu give me the option to run srm, which is a "secure remove" program. I picked this one as it requires not only a file name, but some other options. I've run into no support adding things to menus. When I updated one of the Debian versions, I lost the shutdown option from the name menu that used to be there. It was suggested that I right click and pick that option to restore it, but I get the same as the left button on that menu.

View 3 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Grub2 - Win 7 Menu Entries Not Found?
Jan 10, 2010I have been reading this but could not resolve my issue: [URL]. The problem is as follows. I got a samsung laptop and there is some kind of recovery utility installed. After installing Ubuntu I get too windows grub entries, one is called Windows Vista (loader) on /dev/sda1 and the other one is Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/sda2. The latter is correct and the first one is something that I'd rather not have active at all in the grub menu. Both of them are of course created by 30_os-prober in /etc/grub.d. I figured that I would most likely prefer a custom entry for Windows 7 and remove the x flag from 30_os-prober. I tried to create a file 50_windows7 in a described manner:
#! /bin/sh -e
echo "Adding Windows 43_custom" >&2
menuentry "Windows Vista 43_custom" {
insmod ntfs
set root=(hd0,2)
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 7cecddfbecddb01e
chainloader +1 }
Unfortunately during update-grub I get following:
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-17-generic
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-17-generic
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic

Found Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/sda2

Ubuntu :: Service Menu (Right Click In Dolphin) Trashed With Multiple Entries
May 2, 2011In Dolphin, when right clicking for context menu, my "Open with" list is trashed with multiple entries, that also contain old applications that I no longer have (or even had?). Just for example: for pdfs I have 3 Acrobat Readers, 2 FoxitReaders, 2 okulars, 2 GIMPs (?) etc. Same for other file types. How to clean it? I absolutely don't mind wiping it completely, so that it all goes back to default values. Configuring it anew is much better than having this list bother me every time I use a right click. I'm on 10.10 now, upgraded from 10.04. I've been using my home folder for like ever, without cleaning it, which is probably the source of the issue.
View 2 Replies View RelatedFedora :: F12 Wine32 - Dead Applications Menu Entries
Jan 12, 2010I'm a comparative newbie, especially with using WINE. I installed it through the F12 package installer. I then found that the Applications menu entries were inoperative. Just plain dead. I tried uninstalling, then reinstalling. No improvement. Tried again from terminal using yum no change. The only way I've got anything to work is if I run from terminal as root. I know that if the .wine directory is created with root it may only work with root. I've tried deleting that directory, but I'm not sure I succeeded. I don't see the .wine directory but nothing runs with a non-root login.
When I do see errors, they are mostly that the program can't be found in a WINE "DOS" directory. I did get two MS Office apps installed (as test cases) but, again, F12 menu items don't work and I can only run them as root. I think internet access is cut off as well (can't get them to activate). I guess my overall question is: How do I install WINE in F12 such that the menu items work for non-root logins? If there's already a guide, wiki or FAQ, I'd be happy to know where it is.
CentOS 5 :: System/administration Menu Has 2x 'hardware' Entries
Mar 29, 2009simple installs of CentOS5.2 i386 on 2x Dell C640's and x86-64 on a Dell dimension 9150 resulted in the System/Administration menu offering two entries each with the name 'hardware' and the icon showing a little chip hovering over a PC. I did "add this launcher to panel" on both as an easy way of checking their properties:
The higher entry issues the command 'hwbrowser'
The lower entry issues the command 'hal-device-manager'
Both have the comment "view information on the hardware on this computer". I feel the hal-device-manager entry has the wrong name, comment, and icon. I think /etc/xdg/menus/system-settings.menu is relevant.
OpenSUSE :: Wine - Remove Menu Entries After Uninstalling Programs?
May 26, 2011The only MS program I need on my computer is Word 2007 for the equation editor to write/edit files from work. So after installing Wine I installed MSOffice2007. Excel worked OK (although I don't need it - I am perfectly happy with the Libre Office spreadsheet). Word however froze each time so I tried to uninstall and reinstall it. However I always got an error message when trying to uninstall with Wine. So I followed the advice of some strands in this forum and deleted the Program Files folder from the ~.wine directory. However the menus are still in Wine/Programs/Microsoft Office even though they lead to nowhere. I tried to reinstall but still I nothing happened. I presume the old entries still lead to the position where previously the .exe files were located. Now my question is either how can I remove these menu entries and try installing again - or even better - is there a Linux programme that can read/edit the equations written in Word 2007?
