What do you do when you wake up one morning, and feel stymied, since the `Applications-Places-System' menu has just disappeared? Come on-at least the `System' Menu should have been there - one is so used to it now-a-days. Rebooting did not help. I searched the net, and tweaked a suggested solution. I did a killall gnome-panel (this did not work, BTW, since the old panel came back on, and the ps command cheerfully confirmed this.). Then, I tried a sudo gnome-panel & So I have *TWO* gnome-panels now, and the one I need often plays tookey with me, but thankfully appears when I put my cursor in a particular location. This is a completely arbitrary solution, but seems to work.
Cheers,
