Ouch!  Delete all your settings, just to restore the one application?  That
would really hurt.

You would probably be much better off firing up gconf-editor and looking
through the Windows Registry ^W^W gconf database for the menu settings, or
hunting for the GNOME panel settings under ~/.gnome and deleting only those.


Assuming that is the problem the OP faces, and not rather that some bug
somewhere has broken his system without his actually doing anything.

Daniel

I would consider turning off compositing in your window manager and see if
that helps.

It is still there but is always black on black.  When I minimise a 
window, I see it shrink and disappear into the task bar but after that 
I see no trace of it.  It almost impossible to recall it again from 
the task bar.


Is there any explanation / fix for this?

Re: [SLUG] [ot] How to recover expired domain after some else registers it

2010-07-24 Thread david

Offer to buy it from them :(

Do you have a trade mark for the domain? or failing that a registered 
business name? Is it .au? Australian domains used to be better 
protected, but I'm not sure if that's as true as it once was. If it's a 
foreign tld I wish  you luck.
