Are you using KDE or GNOME? If you are using KDE, run "kmenuedit". If you are using GNOME install the Alacarte (SMEG) Menu Editor.

Delete shortcuts or delete programs?
in the second case 'rpm -e <appname>' is what you're looking for

Mepis is a debian system

Mepis is a debian system

so
apt-get remove programname --purge

or using synaptic to remove the program would work

but it sounds like the poster wants to remove items from the KDE menu
