[MLUG] Fedora 15 ideosynchracies.

[Leslie S Satenstein]

I added alacarte to Fedora15, which allows me to edit menus. I followed Jérome's advice and reverted to the "graphics off mode". This allowed me to set 4 desktops.

With alacarte installed (perhaps I did not need to install it), I right-click on the Applications menu, and it opens for editing.

The alacarte editor shows a final menu entry titled system.  However, System is not shown on the dropdown menu.  I have not found a way to force system to appear.

The second bizzare situation is dragging an application to the panel. Once on the panel, one cannot remove it.  There does not appear to be a way to add/remove panels.  There is a panel application, but it fails to run after starting.

I want the system menu, as one submenu within system is preferences.

Preferences allows me to setup the screensaver, manage sound, software updates, etc...
Someone has cut the menu to be 1 entry short.

Did I fail to find an alternate path to the screensaver. Screensaver does not appear as well, in the new gnome3 "all on the desktop" format.
