I have configured a vncserver to use my normal GNOME desktop. But the bottom panel is empty, and I can't find minimized windows, nor switch between virtual desktop panes. As a result, if I minimize a window, it is gone forever. Any suggestions? -- Colin Adams Preston Lancashire

Using which method ?

Are you logged in to the GUI twice eg locally and through VNC ? Previously, that did not work very well, with certain applets having trouble starting and the launchers stopping working. It might still be the case. DaveT.

That was the problem (the remote system is running Fedora 7, BTE). Thank you. -- Colin Adams Preston Lancashire
