Hi,

I just upgraded my Ubuntu 9.10 to Ubuntu 10.04. Part of the Ubuntu 9.10 installation was GParted (version 0.4.5) and I saw, after upgrading to Ubutnu 10.04, there was a more recent version available: 0.5.1.

After installing that version, GParted was still part of the System > Administration menu (just as it was before).

But then I saw the version 0.6.0 of GParted was recently released and there was also a .deb distro available.

After downloading and installing the 0.6.0 version of GParted, the item GParted disappeared from the System > Administration menu and appeared in another menu (Applications > System Tools).

My question: how can I get GParted back as part of the Systems > Administrations menu?

Best rgds,

Right click on the Applications menu and click Edit Menus.
You can add a new item under System -> Administration from here and also remove the item from Applications -> System Tools.

Sometime installs don't show up do the right click on menu and see if it is actually there tick it of then on, if it's not there then build a new launcher as suggested.

That is indeed working fine. Thanks!
