How To Edit Mint Fluxbox Menu

I am not sure if there is an easier way to edit the main menu in Linux Mint Fluxbox but I found that the menu list is stored in text files in the home folder under .mnt-fm2/submenus.

This folder is hidden so change the view properties first.

Linux Mint Fluxbox

Today I installed Linux Mint Fluxbox on my Asus Eee PC 1000H netbook. I have played around with Mint before but on this netbook it was a little sluggish. 

While surfing the web I came across Fluxbox which, from what I can tell, is a little lighter than the normal Mint distribution so I figured it may work better on my under powered PC.

Installing Mint Fluxbox 9 was easy. I used Unetbootin to burn the ISO I downloaded from the Linux Mint website to a USB. I loaded it as a live CD first but then pulled the trigger and installed it to the hard drive. 

Once I have had time to play with it, I’ll post some updates on my experience here.

My Inaugural Post

I have dabbled around with Linux in the past but this morning I loaded a new distribution onto my netbook and I have decided to start documenting my experiences here.
