Logically, you'd expect the tools menu items to give you programs that let you do something related to the system, but don't actually change any settings (e.g. gather system information, browse the drives, view logs). And the preferences menu items to do with changing settings that will affect the system, and all users. Back on Fedora 9, I can see at least one thing in applications/systems that ought to be in your personal preferences, the gconf-editor shortcut. When you use it, you only get to tweak settings related to your own logon account, not the whole system. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
