    How to edit the "actions" section of the k menu?

    I would like to edit/remove the "actions" section of my K menu but dont know how to do it. Right clicking on the Kmenu Icon and selecting "menu editor" will let me edit the "all application" part of the menu but not the "actions" section, is it possible to edit this part of the Kmenu?

    Which "action" in particular?

    E.g. the "system menu" is defined implicitly through the contents of /usr/share/apps/systemview (further reading).

      Thanks for the help, under my K menu, I have two sections all applications and actions, it looks like this

      -----------------------
      ALL APPLICATIONS
      ------------------------
      games
      graphics
      internet
      multimedia
      system
      utilities
      add remove programs
      settings
      -----------
      ACTIONS
      -----------
      run command
      switch user
      lock session
      Log out

      Everything in the all applications menu can be edited by right clicking the menu icon but I cant work out hot to edit the "actions" part of the menu, Ideally I would like my kmenu to look like this

      -----------------------
      ALL APPLICATIONS
      ------------------------
      games
      graphics
      internet
      multimedia
      system
      utilities
      add remove programs
      settings
      log out

      I never use the run command, switch user, lock session buttons you see.

      Hope this is clear, if not I will try and post a couple of screen shots

        Edit file /home/USER/.kde/share/config/kickerrc (Backup !)

        Add:
        [KDE Action Restrictions]
        lock_screen=false
        run_command=false
        start_new_session=false
        Notes
        start_new_session= false. The entry in the menu will still be there but will have no effect.

        If you really want remove the menu entry:

        It seems the menu entry "Switch User" is dependant on
        KDM as login manager. I installed KDE 3.4 on CentOS 4
        which uses GDM as default login manager. The entry
        Switch User didn't show up this time.
        So install GDM. You can run KDE with GDM:

        run_command=false. Alt+F2 still works
