[ubuntu-uk] Menus

2008-11-13 Thread Ken Adams
Hi All

Is is possible to adjust the menus in both Gnome and KDE according to
which user logs in. Ie. limit which programs show up for use when my 5
year old logs in.

I am using 8.04

Cheers

Rgds Ken

You can do this by logging in as the user you want to restrict, right 
click on the Applications menu and select Edit Menu.

 From here you can untick items to remove them.

Although it's not fool proof it should be enough to stop a 5 yr old 
trying to get into things they shouldn't be using.

Have a look at an application called sabayon.

http://projects.gnome.org/sabayon/

If you wish to install it, it can be done from the Ubuntu repositories.
