Re: [Wlug] gnome desktop menus?

by Baris Hasdemir

hi again, This is strange because gmenu is one of the core programs of gnome. But you can do this way too. those entries on the panel are some .desktop files and here is what Internet/Galeon.desktop entry has in it: penguen@penguen:~$ cat /usr/share/gnome/apps/Internet/galeon.desktop [Desktop Entry] Name=Galeon Comment=Galeon Web Browser Exec=galeon Terminal=0 Type=Application Icon=galeon.png penguen@penguen:~$ Name and Exec entries are enough, though. simply creating a .desktop file in the directory (in my case /usr/share/gnome/apps) will put a new entry on the panel menu. best wishes, baris On Thu, 7 Nov 2002 17:40:21 -0500 (EST) Bill Mills-Curran wrote: > Baris, > > I can't find any gmenu command or file in the Red Hat distro. > > Thanks, > Bill >

I went to see him Last night in Burlington. It was very interesting. I would recommend anyone who follows the hacker culture to go. The "lost chapter" of his book that was removed prior to publishing is at: http://wired.com/news/culture/0,1284,56187,00.html Mitnick links: http://www.albany.net/~dsissman/mitnick.html or just go to google and search Kevin Mitnick.
