Ok do both kde and gnome hate system admin's or something. Kiosk Modes.

Sabayon  and Pessulus on gnome and kiosktool on kde.

Now if my users want to run both KDE and Gnome.  I have to configure 
both separately.

Can you please come to some kinda of agreement on this.

A single list of applications that the user is allowed to run/see in menus.
Shared settings.  Ie I lock kill process by force option in gnome for a 
user.  It is all ready locked in kde or the other way over.

Ok keep each of your own tools but make them share config files in 
places.  In one way kiosk mode settings really should become part of the 
freedesktop.org standard.  Just to make system admins life simple.

Help with writing dynamic menus in gnome panel applets


Hi all,

I'm trying in vain to finish the last bit of my applet but can't seem to 
figure it out. Rather than spending more time reading i thought i may 
short circuit the learning process and ask for help.

I fundamentally need to build a dynamic menu on the panel. This i've 
done and it comes up fine and i can click on items and correct actions 
happen. I've also read the 'writing panel applets' tutorial, but what 
i'm requiring is not covered.

So what i currently have is a menu like below that appears in the panel 
when i right click on my applet icon.

+-------------------+
|      AAAAA        |
+-------------------+
|      BBBBB        |
|      CCCCC        |
+-------------------+
| Remove from Panel |
|       Move        |
+-------------------+
|   Lock to Panel   |
+-------------------+

The items AAAAA, BBBBB and CCCCC are created by me and the rest are the 
default panel items.

Re: Help with writing dynamic menus in gnome panel applets


Hi Nickolay,

Thanks for your suggestions. I think that was exactly what i was looking 
for.

Just to address your concerns about useability of removing applet menu 
items, the reason is my applet will require creating, modifying and 
deletion of profiles. These profiles are listed in the panel applet and 
thus need to be removed as well as rearranged alphabetically, thus the 
requirement to delete and insert items at specific locations.

Thanks again for your pointer
