Removeing menues


Posts: 228

I can not find any way to remove menues from KDE.?? Is there any way to remove unwanted entries.?? Is this possible ?

Can you also reorder, or organize any way ?

I need to add can this be done to??distrobution installed on a PC, not on the live CD !

Click on Kicker i.e. that BIG

Click on Kicker i.e. that BIG "K" > Settings > Menu Editor and do your changes from there. if you need to have your X apps included in a quick way, do it via the Menu Updating Tool i.e. Kicker > Settings > Menu Updating Tool.

I'm having trouble editing

I'm having trouble editing the K menu (and sub-menus).?? I edit the menu with the menu editor and save it (it writes the new settings).?? But whenever I log out and back in, the menu has not changed.?? I'm thinking this is a privilege issue, even though it shouldn't be.?? Any suggestions?

jurewhat you need to do is

what you need to do is open an editor with root privalages and in the /etc/menu-methods directory there is a file named menu-xdg. Edit that file and look for the following line:
prerun = "rm -rf " prefix() "/*";

you just put this # in front of the letter p of prerun, save and exit.
Now when you make your menu changes, they will stay.

In the /etc/menu-methods di

In the /etc/menu-methods directory there is a file named menu.xdg. Edit that file (as root) and look for the following line:
prerun="rm" prefix() "/*
remove this line or put # infront of it and save and exit the file. Now when you make your menu changes they will stay.
