Ubuntu System Panel – A ’start menu’ for the power-user
Ubuntu System Panel (USP) is a replacement for the standard three menus (Applications, Places, System) that come with Ubuntu in the top left. USP condenses these three menus into one easily filtered menu system. You can either navigate the list by clicking buttons related to the type of application you’re looking for (e.g. Accessories, Games, System Tools) or just start typing the name of what you want for a live filter search (my preferred method).
There are many extra tweaks, as seen above I’ve “pimped” mine out a bit with the options. The preferences dialog, you can get to by right clicking system and choosing preferences, has a lot to be desired as it’s interface is a bit O.o. If you play around for a while though, you’ll be able to figure it out.
Optionally, I’ve provided my configuration file which you can apply to your USP by selecting “restore” in the bottom right of the preferences dialog.
