Hi all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
don't quite know how to describe this one, but it's really annoying! |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
My gnome panels are somehow remembering two sets of settings (by |
| 6 |
settings I mean applet placement, etc). |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
If I move a panel applet (lets say the notification area) from the far |
| 9 |
right to the far left, it moves as expected. But then if I move the |
| 10 |
mouse away and over the panel again, the notification area is back |
| 11 |
before I moved it. Moving the mouse away and back again continually |
| 12 |
swaps the position of the notification area! |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
This happens with moving any applet. Removing or adding applets however |
| 15 |
affects both "instances". This is really annoying because it has |
| 16 |
straing side effects for menus, window lists, and pop-up things (like |
| 17 |
the calendar). |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
I've tried deleting all panels: |
| 20 |
$ gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/panel |
| 21 |
$ rm -rf .gconf/apps/gnome-settings/gnome-panel/ |
| 22 |
$ killall gnome-panel |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
and they come back with the default layout, but the problem is still |
| 25 |
there! |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
I do have two displays, using separate X screens, so I don't know if |
| 28 |
that has anything to do with it. I haven't found anything on google |
| 29 |
about this either... |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
thanks for any help! |
