Try the following (I assume you have root privilege): look for the file /usr/lib/X11/system.mwmrc Within it (near the top) you'll find a section similar to what mine looks like: # # menu pane descriptions # # Root Menu Description Menu RootMenu { "Root Menu" f.title no-label f.separator "New Window" f.exec "aixterm &" "Shuffle Up" f.circle_up "Shuffle Down" f.circle_down "Refresh" f.refresh no-label f.separator "Restart..." f.restart "Quit" f.quit_mwm } [ rest of file deleted ] Where you probably need to add that last line "Quit" f.quit_mwm -Ivan Maldonado -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | Guillermo Ivan Maldonado | Internet: ivan@nepjt.ncsu.edu | | Dept. of Nuclear Engineering | BITNET : maldonado@ncsune | | North Carolina State University |------------------------------------- | NCSU Box # 7909 | ... que viva el ECUADOR!! | | Raleigh.
