Sounds problematic at best. How do you specify which menus or launchers to hide? Anything along those lines would surely require changes to various freedesktop.org specs. I doubt any of this will even be considered until SELinux is in a usable state (FC3? FC4?). Then ideally you would show menus based on user roles. As for removing the menus entirely you can copy: /etc/X11/desktop-menus/applications.menu to: ~/.gnome2/vfolders/applications.vfolder-info To remove the menus requiring root access you can edit the vfolder-info file. Remove the Folder blocks named: System MoreSystem System Settings Server MoreServer There may be implications to doing this, of course. Particularly if something adds a new application menu. But, I don't think anything of grave importance would be affected. I've done it for several years without any problems. -- David Norris http://www.webaugur.com/dave/ ICQ - 412039
