Description Tomasz Dudzik 2008-09-14 17:25:02 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          CMake 2.6 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

There should be a way to edit systesettings content. Like menu edit. It should have an option to add additional apps like Nvidia X Config or other. It can also be automatic. F.e when i install the nvidia drivers, the Nvidia X Config doesn' show in the menu, but in the systemsettings. There should be a way to configure other dievies like webcams, mobile phones (printers will come soon, i hope ;) ). 

Srry for my bad english. ;]

PLEASE, integrate this feature! :(  It's SO very redundant to have a "System" folder, "Settings" folder, AND a "System Settings" app, all with different items!  It was very -confusing- as a first-time user, too.  I want to make System Settings like a Windows Control Panel.  It would be nice if I could use something like KDE Menu Editor to also create separators for organization, but I at least would just like to add items to System Settings like a normal folder.
