Ubuntu – Disable gnome-panel launcher (Alt+F2)

gnome-panellauncherunity

I'm running Unity and a gnome-panel panel at the bottom at the same time. Is there a way to disable the gnome-panel's launcher? At the moment, both Unity's and gnome-panel's launcher pop up when I press Alt+F2.

Thanks in advance!

Best Answer

You can disable Gnome Panel launcher using Gnome lockdown feature.

Execute this command:

gconftool-2 -t bool -s /desktop/gnome/lockdown/disable_command_line true

(You can inspect this option using gconf-editor) While Unity will ignore this setting, Gnome launcher will be effectively disabled.
