Re: Gnome 2.4.2 panel problems with Xinerama



My bad. I think we run Gnome 2.2 de Redhat at work. Try this instead:

run "gconf-editor /apps/panel/profiles/default/toplevels"

That should open the gconf-editor with the location tree expanded to a
panels node under which there should be a child node for each panel on
your desktop (my child nodes are named 'panel_1' and 'panel_2'). Under
each of those nodes I have a setting named "monitor". If you assigned
your panel a name in the panel properties dialog you can identify your
panel node by inspecting the name setting. Find your panel node then try
changing the "monitor" setting to 1.

I the above locations are not *exactly* right, they should still put you
in the right area.

Have fun.
