I have added a screen shot of my current desktop in classic view. As you can see, there is no bottom panel, and at the top bar, the button at the top left corner doesn't do anything. So I cant access my applications. When I open a window/browser and minimize it, it goes on top panel. (Like NBR view).
When I open terminal to switch back to the NBR using the desktop- switcher command -- i get the following errors --- but it does eventually take me to NBR view and everything works fine. My only problem is with the classic view..I just dont know why i cant have the old school classic view on my netbook, i definitely screwed up something which is causing this weird remix version of classic view (check screenshot). Any help to restore my original classic view would be gr8tly appreciated. s...@saad-netbook:~$ desktop-switcher In classic mode: true ** (desktop-switcher:3755): DEBUG: Enabling netbook mode ** (desktop-switcher:3755): DEBUG: Enabling launcher autostart ** (desktop-switcher:3755): DEBUG: Launching the, er, Launcher get fences failed: -1 param: 6, val: 0 ** (netbook-launcher:3761): DEBUG: CONFIG: Low graphics mode: False ** (netbook-launcher:3761): DEBUG: CONFIG: Font dpi: 96.000000 ** (netbook-launcher:3761): DEBUG: CONFIG: Font changed: Sans 10 ** (netbook-launcher:3761): DEBUG: CONFIG: Connecting to ConsoleKit for suspend/resume restarting ** (desktop-switcher:3755): DEBUG: Restoring panel settings WARNING: failed to associate schema `/schemas/apps/go-home-applet/prefs/icon_name' with key `/apps/panel/applets/applet_0/prefs/icon_name': Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash.
