Adding icons to GGV menu

[Nimit Dhulekar]

Hello everyone

I am making some changes to GGV. I have added a module that will allow you
to search on PS files. I need some verification that the changes I have made
aren't OS specific. I am attaching an XML file in which I have made some
changes to the layout of GGV (adding extra menu icons and toolbar
shortcuts). Please replace the XML file ' ggv-ui.xml' in the directory
/usr/share/gnome-2.0/ui
and reply back confirming whether you were able to see a menus called
'Search' and 'Add' and also toolbar icons 'Search' and 'Add Note'.

If you are unable to view any changes try replacing the file ggv-ui.xml in
the following directory
/usr/local/share/gnome-2.0/ui

I apologise for having to include the code at the end of the mail but it
just wouldn't allow me to send the mail with the attachment to this mailing
list.

I am presently running FC3 and the changes were reflected only when the
changes were made to the second path not in the first whereas my colleague
who is running FC2 could see the changes after replacing the file in the
first path.

Your urgent replies would be highly appreciated.

Nimit

How to add items to the desktop right click menu

[malcolm northcott]

On previous versions of Fedora the top item on the desktop right click
menu produced a terminal window. Under FC5 the top item now produces an
empty folder on the desktop. I'm tired of filling my desktop with empty
folders, and would like to restore the create terminal command to the
top of the menu list. Does anyone know how to change this menu.
    Thanks,
    	Mal.

Poking around on my machine revealed nothing (I use FC2, which
still has it), but Google turned up this:

Okay.  That is great.  I have been used to opening terminal windows with 
the right click for years.  I have to ask: why was it removed?  Is it to 
keep "ordinary users" from having access to it?  Adding it back with the 
command mentioned at the above link is easy enough but I really question 
the wisdom of removing it in the first place.

gnome seemingly has adopted an ever changing theory of simplifying the
user space to minimize user confusion (hence options/configuration
options).

I tossed in the towel and have switched to KDE lately.

They say
"The 'open terminal' action has been removed from the Nautilus right-click
menu, in order to improve manageability..."
and further
"... which not only restores 'open terminal' to the nautilus menu, but
actually makes it better by ..."
What! - whom they wish to please?
Anyway OK, but why at the cost of those who patronise.
OR is this the only way (via-media) they could have helped Malcolm.
