How do I replace the MeMenu username with my actual name?

My user name takes approximately as long as would 6 icons. I don't need to see my username, I am the only user of my computer. How can I remove it?

I use Ubuntu 10.10.

UPDATE: The answer found:


gconftool -s /system/indicator/me/display --type int 0

UPDATE: Unfortunately the solution doesn't work any more. Now it totally removes the instant messaging menu (including the icon) instead of just removing a name.
