GNOME panel vanished

[auccl799]

Hi,

My panel at the bottom of the screen has vanished. First off the "shutdown" button in the computer menu vanished so I restarted and when I did that, the entire panel had vanished. I shut down and restarted again but it hasn't helped. What next please?

Thanks
Ocky

Right click desktop, add panel
Then right click panel to add items

For a Gnome Panel that's been deleted try this:

Start Gnome Terminal by pressing Alt+F2. Then enter the command: gnome-terminal. DEnter these comamands in the terminal:

• gconftool-2 --shutdown
• rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/panel
• pkill gnome-panel

I got that from digesting this: RE: Restore default panel on gnome desktop?

Luck

So, what happens if you do ALT-F2 then type 'gnome-panel'? Does it get reinstated?
