[ubuntu-studio-users] Start menu and other issues

[Thomas Pfundt]

Hi,

you may also use "Alacarte" (sudo apt install alacarte) for editing the 
Whisker Menu, that's what they call it.

It's relatively similar to the Libre* program, but won't mess up the 
Ubuntu Studio entries so easily, plus it has a graphical button to the 
lower right of the window to restore the Studio settings in case 
something went wrong.

In case you need to manually create entries for programs that don't 
automatically show up (e.g. TOR Browser bundle, TeamSpeak, etc.), you 
can follow this guide to create them: 
https://xubuntugeek.blogspot.in/2011/12/add-items-to-xfce-applications-menu.html 


Unfortunately, I can't help you with the Firewire problems.


Kind regards!
