LM13 XFCE: How to remove entries from the Games menu?

[mingle]

Hi all,

I installed the 'gnome-games' package via Package Manager and it has created entries for 15 new games.

However, I only really wanted Swell Foop, so it would be nice to be able to remove the other entries
from the menu (I can't see any way to uninstall the individual games, which is a pain in the rump).

But when I navigate to the game icon (on the Games menu), right-click and select "Delete from menu"
the entry reappears almost immediately.

Is there any way I can remove entries from menus, or will the Package Manager (or other process) keep
putting them back?

Cheers,

Mike.

Synaptic should give a list of the game names in the description of the package and you should be able to uninstall individual games.

If not here is a list of the games in the package...not sure if it's current though. Just search in synaptic for the game name eg. gnome-sudoku and mark for removal and apply.

If you install "alacarte" (Main Menu) you will have control over your menu entries. Right click on the entry, remove the tick from the box and select "delete".
