Re: [Trisquel-users] How can I disable the 'Recent Documents' menu?
Those using Gnome and/or any of the Ubuntu-based distros should learn about zeitgeist, apport, scopes, lens, geoglue, whoopsie, and the uses of Gnome Activity Journal. Surely, Trisquel has removed these? :-) As Spinoza said, installing the missing “Privacy” app is a good first step: http://ubuntugenius.wordpress.com/2012/05/03/ubuntu-12-04-upgrade-fix-missing-privacy-app-in-system-settings/ What is Whoopsie? http://askubuntu.com/questions/135540/what-is-the-whoopsie-process-and-how-can-i-remove-it Purpose of Zeitgeist and Gnome Activity Journal: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeitgeist_%28framework%29 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME_Activity_Journal Apport and crash report info sent to Canonical: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Apport ** Canonical may change this legal notice from time to time, and at Canonical's sole discretion.

I just added Privacy from the software add/remove menu. It's the same thing as in Ubuntu.
Re: [Trisquel-users] How can I disable the 'Recent Documents' menu?
It's the same thing as in Ubuntu. For the ones here that don't use ubuntu, what does it do? Also, I could not find a package by that name, can you easily figure it out? I feel a joke coming on along the lines in ubuntu privacy is something you install..!
[Trisquel-users] How can I disable the 'Recent Documents' menu?
The location of the menu is PlacesRecent Documents. I don't want Trisquel to remember my file browsing history.
Re: [Trisquel-users] How can I disable the 'Recent Documents' menu?
I found one solution (assuming you're using Gnome) #Empty the list of recently used documents echo ~/.recently-used #Make the file read-only, #Such that Gnome can't actually add new 'recently used documents' to the file. sudo chmod 400 ~/.recently-used Note, i have no idea whether or not the file .recently-used exists in Trisquel version of Gnome. But you can check whether or not it does by, ls -a ~/ | grep recently-used source: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91154
