Removing Launcher Menu Items

[MASantangelo]

I recently installed Alpha Centauri and it created 2 icons, Loki Uninstaller and Loki Updater. I am trying to find a way to remove them, but I'm not familiar with the launcher menu configuration.

Also, when I installed Ogle and XMMS, it created icons for itself in almost every menu, I wish to remove those as well.

Any ideas/clues because I'm at a complete loss..

Attached is an image that shows the launcher menu...



Thanks.

This works:

even tho it says rh8. You'll learn a lot about Gnome if you read this whole page top to bottom.

Okay... Let's scratch that idea...

I installed Gnome 2.6 (via Garnome) but now I need to add it to the Graphical login screen.

How exactly would I go about this? The readme file that came with it said I must...

How do I start GARNOME once it is installed?

   The easiest way is to create a garnome-session script, and use the
   standard method your distribution provides to launch it when you start
   X. Here's what the script should look like:

     #!/bin/sh
     GARNOME=$HOME/garnome
     PATH=$GARNOME/bin:$PATH
     LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$GARNOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
     PYTHONPATH=$GARNOME/lib/python2.2/site-packages
     PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$GARNOME/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig
     GDK_USE_XFT=1
     XDG_DATA_DIRS=$GARNOME/share
     export PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH PYTHONPATH PKG_CONFIG_PATH GDK_USE_XFT
     XDG_DATA_DIRS
     exec $GARNOME/bin/gnome-session

   Just set the GARNOME variable at the top to wherever you installed
   GARNOME. It will usually be $HOME/garnome, as above.

   If you start X with the startx command you should launch this in
   ~/.xinitrc. If you use the Xsession menu choice in GDM, you should
   launch this in ~/.xsession. Assuming the garnome-session script is in
   your path, both files should look like this:

     #!/bin/sh
     exec garnome-session

   My own startup script is a little bit funkier:

     #!/bin/sh
     xset -solid black
     xset fp+ /home/jdub/.fonts/
     xset fp rehash
     exec /usr/bin/ssh-agent /home/jdub/bin/garnome-session

   This sets the background to black so I don't have to look at the ugly
   grey default for very long, sets up old X programs to use all the
   fonts I have in my .fonts directory, and runs garnome-session under
   ssh-agent (very useful if you use ssh keys).

but where do I put this script ? I've never done this before and it worries me a bit...[/code]
