I tried previously by renaming my entire .gnome
directory to something else. This didn't bring back
the panel. However, after creating a guest account, I
got a panel on login. I'm going to rename all of the
gnome related directories in my home folder and see if
that doesn't bring back the panel. The solution
appears to be close now.
