Hi! > Is it because I am on an oldish version of Gnome Shell in F14 that I > have a small sys tray area next to the "me menu" with all these little > gizmos like pidgin, monitor icon, volume, bluetooth, networkmanager > etc? Is that the area and functionality we are talking about and is it > gone in newer iterations of Gnome Shell? This area is still there but it contains only system icons (http://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell/Design/Guidelines/SystemStatus). Those are * Universal access * Input language * Audio volume * Bluetooth * Network * Battery and power (and they are only visible if you have the appropriate hardware). Erick was talking about other stuff that you can add to the gnome-panel which isn't available in gnome-shell. Johannes
