[K12OSN] No apps in IceWM under Gnome submenu in K12LTSP 4.4.1

[David Trask]

Although I couldn't find a way around this exact issue....here's what I
did to get many of the programs fom Gnome into IceWM.  I ran a program
called MenuMaker....this generated many menu items for me for things like
the Gnome Games...etc.  I then simply edited that down to what I wanted. 
Worked pretty good and still kept out a lot of the fluff.
