Unity looks good, sometimes, so I have been told.  But for people use to 
GNOME or KDE, I would make sure those desktops are installed and set 
them as the default.  Everything I have read, and heard, makes me fee 
that will be my only choice, once I get my monitor issues fixed so I can 
install 11.xx.  It may be worse with Win 8 and its "Ribbon" style of 
desktop.  Good for touch pads but not of desktops.  That menu form is 
what many of "my" MSO users would not go beyond MSO 2003 or switched to 
OOo and then LO.



Lubuntu, Xubuntu, and Kubuntu do not install Unity at all. These have a
similar look and feel to Windows for most users. I believe you can
change the desktop at log in with 11.10 Ubuntu to Gnome 3.X

Hi :)
Which version of Ubuntu are you using?

It might be easier to try to uninstall things using the package manager while LibreOffice is 
closed.  Perhaps the lock is due to LibreOffice being open?

In Ubuntu 10.10 and earlier try the top taskbar and click on

System - Administration - "Synaptic Package Manager"

I don't know how to do that in Ubuntu 11.10 or 11.04.  If you are using one of them then 
perhaps open a command-line / terminal-console and try

gksu synaptic

to open Synaptic?
Either way once open the sesarhc tools should help you find the extensions.  I would search for 
"libreoffice" and then click the top of the column that has the green splodges in it that 
indicate packages that are installed.  Hopefully that will get all the installed packages, 
extensions and all to the top so you can just scroll down to find the one you want.

The package manager ususally searches in descriptions as well as titles so a straight-forwards 
search might just give you the right thing straight away but i'm a bit pessimistic about that 
sort of thing ;)

Hi,
I installed lo-menubar from the Ubuntu Software Center
which is said to
provide a Global Menu rather than a program-specific one.

While the installation is successful and the extension
works as stated, I
would like to disable or remove it because I now realise
that it does have
"*Windows*" as part of the Global Menu.
There's File, Edit, View, Insert, Format, Tools, Help ...
but no *Windows*.
I'm used to relying on *Windows* and then opening a new
window of the same
document. Additionally, LibreOffice would remember how I
arrange two Windows
and open the second window just the way I like it.

Since Windows is missing, I have to work around by going to
File, New
Document which I don't like.

When I look in Tools, Extension Manager, I see three
extensions listed:
Copy Visible cells (which I had installed on LibreOffice
3.3 / Natty and
which has been retained during the upgrade to 11.10)
menubar (installed via Ubuntu Software Center)
Script Provider for Python 3.3.0 (which seems to have been
there by default
since I didn't install it)

The last two, menubar and Script Provider have little locks
next to them.

While the first, "Copy visible cells" has a disable/remove
option, the two
with locks next to them don't. So it looks like I cannot
disable or remove
menubar unless someone helps me!
