It may have changed in gnome 2, but panel is the
command for "gnome panel" in Gnome 1.4. I do have the
following commands that include the prefix
'gnome-panel'. They are: $1-add-launcher,
$1-properties-cacapplet-panel-scscreenshot
In the file, /etc/gnome/default.session, the
fofollwingall to 'panel' is listed.
7,ReRestartCommandanel --smsmlient-id default7
This line is listed three times in different places
corresponding to one for each session listed in
/etc/gnome/default.session. After having moved my
session file in my home directory out of the way, I
have tried logging in using each of the default
settings, classic, default, and nautilus, listed in
this file. The gnome panel doesn't come up any of
these times. I, however, don't have an entry for
panel in my own session file. There should be one,
and I haven't ededitedhis file by hand.
Thanks for the response. Any more suggestions?
Ian
