Ubuntu :: Can't Get Panels Back?
May 13, 2010
i'm an EEE PC user planning an imminent move to Ubuntu Lucid/ Maverick & Debian Sid . . i've put some work into my existing Ubuntu install based on 9.10 karmic nbr2 and am very happy with the results - full credit and thanks to allscreenshots of my work in progress ati'm therefore hoping to be able to upgrade my machine rather than do a fresh install, tho i have by now got .iso's of my present install and backups( dumps ) of gconf.managed to trash my panels a few days back and ended up rebuilding themas gconf --loadand restoring my /.gconf had failed to do the trick of restoring.

I have removed some items from the panel accidentally . Now I want to get those items back , but the problem is , when I press right click on the panel and choose (Add To Panel) , those items aren't existed . Those Items blong to some things that I cannot even make an application launcher of , such as : (The Item Of Quick Language Changing) to switch between languages easily and smothly , (The Item Of Controling The Volume) to increase and Decrease the volume , and (The Item Of Managing The Network Access) to connect/disconnect to a network . And There are some other items.

I tried a program called BarPanel, which replaces the Gnome Panels. The installation instructions told me to download the program installer (the program installs automatically for Debian/Ubuntu users). Then I had to go to System > Preferences > Sessions to remove the gnome-panel entry and add the BarPanel one. So far so good. On re-starting, the new panels were installed to my desk top in bright green! The problem was that a lot of the icons don't work. The action menu does nothing and there is no entry for Sessions in the System menu, so I can't go back and undo. I have re-installed gnome-panel under Synaptic, without any success. I un-installed BarPanel, so I now don't have any panels at all now! One good thing is that I have Cairo-dock on my desktop, so I have access to several programs, including the terminal.
Can someone out there give me the command line instructions to get the gnome panels back.

All my panels and desktop and wallpaper disappeared. I don't know how to get them back without restarting KDE4. I have too many things open. I can't right click the desktop > appearance settings and I don't know what to input into alt+F2 to get that system settings menu. Any ideas?

Whenever I log in, restart, etc... There are no panels shown, I have to alt+F2, open terminal and run killall gnome-panels in order to have panels shown again. Is there a way to fix this?

I find that I prefer have both panels located at the screen top. That way I don't have to go to the bottom of the screen for one thing, then back to the top for another. I arranged the panel so the regular top one is on top,then the panel that contains the open applications is underneath.The problem is, when I reboot, the panels lose their order. First, the regular top panel initializes, then the bottom ones starts and pushes the first panel down, which becomes what you see in the picture: I would like to find a way to keep them in the opposite order of what you see in the picture, but every time I reboot they end up in that order.

10.04
I managed to delete the Volume Applet that appears by default on the task bar. I'm sure it used to be listed in 'Add to Panel' in other version of Ubuntu however I can't see it there in 10.04.
Can someone explain to me how I get it back?

I manipulated the two pannels, making them to automatically hide, then changing one of them to the upper side...
Suddenly it stopped working, I could not complete the change, and on the next restart no panel show up!
I guess I need to reset the configuration of gnome-panel or something, but I have no idea how to do so.

I followed the instructions in this guide to get the plasma workspace without having to migrate to kde:http://digitizor.com/2010/01/01/how-...28Digitizor%29All went well, I was able to complete all the steps in the guide, and I double clicked the "plasma workspace.sh" and it launched the plasma workspace fine.Then I tried using the gnome-desktop.sh the same way, but it just started the gnome desktop and quickly reverted to the plasma workspace. So I looked at the commands in the plasma.sh and the gnome.sh, and the commands on the guide page, and noticed they were the same for both shell scripts. So I changed the gnome desktop.sh from:
#!/bin/bash
killall fusion-icon
killall gnome-panel
[code]....

I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 and sometimes when I boot up the OS the panels aren't there in the desktop and I have to reboot to get them to unhide. Is that a bug in 9.10?

I deleted all my panels and have been using AWN. Well, Ive decided that I want my panels back. I can get the panels to run through terminal but if i restart, they disappear again. How do I permanently restore my panels? I know that I had to turn off the values for Gnome-panel when deleting the last panel, and I just dont know where I went to do it because I was following instructions from another thread.

I installed the two-panel Nautilus version to Karmic and it added a "start_with_extra_panel" key to gconf. Now, after an upgrade to Lucid, the key is still there but it has no mapping. So, is there a way to tell Gnome to always start with two panels in Lucid?

I have a computer which I have just installed Ubuntu on, after wiping the hard drive and everything is fine except that upon login (it is set to login automatically and skip the login screen), no panels appear. Everything is fully functional: the mouse moves, I can right-click to create a new folder, etc. but I cannot access anything because I have no panels. I have tried two different monitors, one 17" and one smaller (I think 15") and both do the same thing.

So, after upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04, after I login there are no panels. Only thing I can do is right click and bring down a drop-down menu. So I created firefox launcher. I've tried to reboot in recovery mode, in some display safe mode, and all panels and windows look fine, with all window buttons, so I tried to change display driver from current recommended to 173 (Nvidia). After reboot problem is still here. I also tried to rename new xorg.conf and replace it with what I think was pre-upgrade one in /etc/X11 but nothing helped.

i have noticed that if vista is not the active partition, hybernate does not work. it just goes black and then back to the user icon screen to log back in. another "slight" problem was that i was not able to apply a service pack. after restoring vistas dominance i was able to install the pack. is there any other work arounds for hybernate? even though you might not be interested in cleaning up after microsoft.

My graphics card is nvidia geforce 7900 GS. It has two DVI outputs, and I have one monitor plugged into each output. I am running proprietary drivers from nvidia, thus also the `nvidia-settings' tool.
I'm running with the TwinView setting, enabling nice dragging and dropping of windows between the two monitors, but here's the problem:
Only one of my two monitors have the gnome panels at the top and bottom of the screen. I would like the panels to show up on both screens.
how would I go about enabling this?
Bonus Question: Once this is enabled, if possible, would I then somehow also be able to have different virtual desktops be active on each monitor? If so, how?

I've done a fresh install of 10.04 (amd64) on a computer with two screens and twinview configured and I don't see how to move the Gnome panels to the second screen.Left-clicking and dragging them to the desired position (something that worked fine in 8.04) doesn't seem to work. Needless to say that the position picker in properties does not contain any "second screen" options.

So, is there a way to tell Nautilus to always start with two panels in Lucid? Also, how hard is it to replace the current version of Nautilus with the one from ppa:berndth/ppa as I really like that one?

I'm an experienced programmer on other systems, but pretty new to Ubuntu. I'm having trouble with a fresh install of 10.4 Lucid Lynx on an old Pentium III desktop that was working fine with a previous release of Ubuntu. The problem started after an upgrade to 10.4, persisted after doing a clean install from CD, and is still there after installing all recommended updates.
The symptom is that after login, neither the top nor the bottom gnome panels are displayed. I can right-click on the desktop and get the desktop menu, and I can type Alt-F1 and get the left-hand launcher menus, though the top panel still does not display.
The problem does not always occur, but nearly always. The first login to a newly created account will often show the panels, but in subsequent logins the panels are hidden.
If I login in Failsafe GNOME mode, the panels will appear.
I can fix the problem for a given login session by opening gconf-editor, editing /apps/panels/toplevels/top_panel_screen0, and toggling auto_hide on and then off again. If I log out and back in again, the problem recurs. The problem is that I'm trying to set up this computer for some very naive users, so this kind of workaround isn't really practical.
I'm not sure if it matters, but in the Appearance preferences, visual effects are set to "none".
how I might get the gnome panels to appear reliably?

I installed 10.04 twice on a recycled 10 year old Dell, using both a regular and an alternative live CD. With both installs, there were no top or bottom Gnome panels when I started up so I could not access the programs, make changes, etc. A message appeared asking if I wanted to delete the aplets (or panel?) the first time I started it up. I answered yes with the regular CD and no with the alternative, but did not see the massage again.
