So I just spent about an hour trying to get my top panel back to the top. Somehow I got a window underneath the top panel and I moved the top panel to the right. Now the darn thing is that the top panel got stuck and I couldn’t move it back. I think I got too much stuff crammed in there to grip hold of anything.
I found a very helpful link here: http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/moving-the-locked-top-panel-in-ubuntu-gnome/#comment-207576
I learned a few new things….
Alt-F2 will bring up a run-command.. (Seems like you could just open up a terminal to do the same thing, but I guess some people don’t like that)
To move the top panel from top to right
gconf-editor
/apps/panel/toplevels/top_panel
adjust “orientation” from “right” to “top”
On a side note…. If you want to blow a lot of time… This blog is rather entertained… Be forwarned it is not Rated-G: http://linuxhaters.blogspot.com/2008/06/evolution-of-ubuntu-user.html
Ok… Now after wasting a bunch of time…. Back to wxWidgets.
