I have the Universal Access Preferences stuck in my notificon section of my panel even after unchecking if from the startup list. How do I get it from showing up? I've logged out and restarted and its still there.

Thank you.

Hi,

Sorry, but what do you mean with 'universal access preferences'? Which Mint version, and which window manager (plus version) do you use?

Thank you for answering.

Go to Control Center, Keyboard and click on the Accessibility tab. Then remove the check from the top line, Accessibility features can be toggled.....
The icon will disappear.

That did it! At first I was thinking you meant the option in the preferred application settings. Thanks

I am using Mint 8 x64 and Gnome (not sure the version of Gnome, but whatever came with Mint 8.)
