From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040922 Description of problem: According to the gnome 2.6 user guide, section 5.7, one can customize menus by navigating to the applications:/// location (and making various editing changes). However, this fails in two ways. If I select application:/// I get a read-only folder. If I select applications-all-users:/// I get an error message. Neither condition is covered in the help manual. It looks like there might be additional information (locked directories, etc) in the sys admin guide. But I believe this is a bug because: (1) configuration: the out-of-box user configuration doesn't match the help guide (2) appropriateness: users shouldn't need admin privileges they don't have in order to do something as basic as customizing their menus. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): nautilus-2.6.0-4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: per help guide directions, 1. open file manager 2. go to applications:/// 3. try to create a folder Actual Results: can't - the vfolder is write protected Expected Results: should be able to create folders (menus) and items (menu elements) Additional info:
We disable the vfolder editing due to stability problems. Reassigning to be a docs bug.
I removed that section of the docs
