I have been having issues with the top panel going AWOL when I do work on my box. I have managed to get a screenie before it dissapeared yet agian. What do I do to keep it?
I have 3.5 x64 and use cinnamon desktop.

Thanks.

Dont use cinnamon.
Stick with mate desktop or KDE with kwin.
Have you installed the drivers for your radeon GPU??

I am pretty sure that picture is not of the Cinnamon desktop.

The panel in Cinnamon does dissapear, muffin won't stick.

If the picture is..well..you have gnome classic panels in your cinnamon, might be better to use gnome classic.

If you are using Compiz in Gnome Classic, make sure you go into CCSM and check to see that the Ubuntu Unity plug-in is unchecked.

Ctrl+Alt-t

Code: Select all

gnome-panel --replace

and or try

Code: Select all

compiz --replace

see if that wont get it back !
I create a compiz --replace fail-safe and place it in the lower right of my desktop, as most windows tend to be upper left, and if full screen can be closed with the "file" tab, and I can restart compiz without having to reboot !
open gedit place compiz --replace in it, save as compiz start or something, Right click on it open properties make it executable, now you have a way to get compiz back when it crashes ! and it will ! just something I do to make my life a little easier ! maybe yours too !

And if you install Cairo-dock there is a nifty add on to toggle compiz also...

Install your drivers...
