Package: gnome-panel Version: 2.24.3-1+b1 Severity: important
I am totally frustrated because gnome-panel do not obey me. It just frets and fumes like a brat. It is not at all possible to create panels to more than two places: To top and to left. If I go to settings of some vertical panel and try to make it so that it goes to right side of the desktop, that settings goes back to left. Correspondingly, if I go to settings of horizontal panel and try set it so that it goes to bottom of my screen, that settings just goes back "top". Well, I tried to remove all panels. I even deleted all my directories whose name starts ".gnome" and logged in to new gnome-session. Panels still have old settings. If there is some way to completely wipe out all settings of panels, I'd like to know about it. I tried to find something from directories .gconf and .config and in vain. I just removed other panels but the last refused to go away. Therefore I created a new one and after I was able to remove that old panel. I added some applets to new panel and after that it looked like this: http://iki.fi/juhtolv/tmp/bugreports/gnome-panel/02/new_panel_before_logout.png After first logout I logged back in and it looked like this: http://iki.fi/juhtolv/tmp/bugreports/gnome-panel/02/new_panel_after_the_first_logout.png I tweaked it so that it is not spread from lefti side to right side: http://iki.fi/juhtolv/tmp/bugreports/gnome-panel/02/new_panel_after_tweaking_logout.png Then I logged out and then back.
