Hi,
My GNOME 2.2.1 desktop has 2 "panels".
1. On top, looks like the old Macintosh menu bar. It's very thin.
2. The "traditional" Gnome panel is on the bottom on my system.
To move the "traditional" Gnome panel, right-click in an empty area
of the panel. A window should pop up.
The 1st entry will be "Add to panel"
2nd entry: "Delete this panel"
3rd entry: "Properties"
Select "Properties". A "Panel Properties" window should appear
that has 2 tabs: "Edge Panel" & "Background". "Edge Panel" should
be the active tab.
A box named "Position" should be in the center, with rectangular
buttons on each side. Click on the button that corresponds to where
on the screen you want the panel.
HTH
