    Question 12.04 LTS Administration Menu?

    Hi,

    Just installed 12.04 LTS, Awesome! How do you include a Menu for Administration Apps just like the classic? Where do I find "Edit Menu"?

    Thanks!...

    All the system configuration stuffs are now stored in one unified tool - System Settings. You can find it in the Dash or click on the Power button on the top right.

    For Edit Menu, install alacarte.
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends alacarte

    Is it possible to restrict the installed applications that show up in the Dash. For ex., if we don't want the user to play the Solitaire game which is already installed in the system, then how to restrict access to it?

    if you have an app that you don't want displayed in the unity* Dash or applications menu then open it's .desktop & add this line
    Code:
    NoDisplay=true
    Here there are 2 .desktops in /usr/share/applications, sol.desktop & freecell.desktop, screen
