[Bug 192009] Re: gnome panel has no way to specify on which screen it should appear

2009-11-23 Thread Robbie G
I got fed up with manual hacks gconf editor etc etc etc  installed
cairo dock which stays put on my laptop screen irrespective of whether I
have the external monitor connected. Just what I wanted and though eye-
candy's not what it's about, it looks rather good too! You'll need to
clear down your gnome panel and set it to hide in some way, but if
you're here then you'll know your way round gnome panel well enough to
sort something out methinks ;-)

[Bug 192009] Re: gnome panel has no way to specify on which screen it should appear

2009-08-20 Thread Robbie G
Is there any update on this bug?

My gnome panel moves from my laptop screen to the external monitor every
time  I connect it at work and it's profoundly annoying as I travel a
lot and lose my gnome panel next time I'm on the road. Going into gconf-
editor to kludge it back to the laptop screen is very, very unfriendly.

[Bug 180881] Re: Fonts in the GNOME login screen are disproportionately big

2008-10-07 Thread Robbie G
This login screen problem is *still* present in an Intrepid Ibex Alpha6
clean install.

This really does need to be addressed !

[Bug 180881] Re: Fonts in the GNOME login screen are disproportionately big

2008-05-08 Thread Robbie G
Thanks Jan Groenewald for the x-referencing and workaround suggestions
however this really needs to be fixed upstream so that it does not
appear in the relases of Ubuntu.

Threads 363958  575978 reference only the font size / login screen
issue (Not sure about 706788) and temporary workarounds were suggested.

Threads 235214, 3609621 and bug 141001 reference issues with large fonts
appearing in gnome window titles AND the login screen. I previously
experienced both.

The issue with the large fonts in the window titles has been resolved
(bug 141001) - thanks to all involved.

However... It is now apparent that there were 2 separate issues here as
the login font issue remains. For clarity I attach a screenshot of the
login font issue that remains (this is unashamedly copied from a January
2007 post which shows the problems been around for a while!).
