Q: How do I add an item to the Red Hat menu under Gnome?

A: Quoted from the Red Hat Linux 9 Bible:

"There is currently no way to add or remove 
 applications to or from this menu from the GUI."

To add an item to the Red Hat menu, you must create a .desktop file in the /usr/share/applications directory.
