Global Menu is the globally shared menu bar of all applications that are launched in the Unity desktop session. But sometimes having Global Menu can be really annoying because it shifts the menu integrated in the main interface of the application to the Gnome Panel. The case is same in the Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelet also. In this post , we will show you how to disable the global menu in Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot.
