Mint menu

[beast2k]

This may seem like a strange question but can anyone tell me what the name of the package that the "start" menu is called? Automatix has a package that they offer called slab is this the same package ?

No, but it is a slab style menu and it is called mintmenu.

Thanks, I wanted to know so if I try other distros I can install it instead of the regular old boring menu that most distros use. I find it easier/faster to find things with this menu. I haven't used suse in years so this is the first time I have seen any menu in the slab style.
