[Lubuntu-desktop] desktop app menu

2011-05-05 Thread Patrick Johnson
I like having the application menu available when I right click the desktop. I found where to configure that option, but when I enable it there are only 3 apps listed. Shouldn't it be the same menu structure that exists when clicking on the Lubuntu start button? Also, I think it would be great i

I now know that power management settings can be configured by clicking on the battery icon when a netbook/laptop is running on battery, but I didn't see Power Management Preferences anywhere in the application menus. Am I missing it? --- Patrick Johnson
