are you kidding... it is absolutly compelete

and is not needed to add any debug information about program crash... because no program is crashed

just try Ctrl+F2 and type any name of option located in menu \System\Administration or \System\Preferences

see example on enclosure

Hello svecpetr,

Do you mean Alt+F2?

Ctrl+F2 does nothing on my machine.

[svecpetr (svecpetr-svecpetr)]

Yep, sorry

all is about Alt+F2

not Ctrl+F2, my mistake

[Leo Arias (elopio)]

Ok. I can see what you mean. You would like to include in the application list the system tools.

I'm not sure if this is a bug, though. I'll mark this issue as confirmed as I can reproduce the behaviour you are experiencing. Let's wait for a developer to tell us if it's a bug or a feature.

thanks,
pura vida.
