[SOLVED] Help! Panel disappeared in Xubuntu!

marinecomm · 10-15-2013, 03:45 PM

Was sitting here working on the computer when the power restarted for some reason. When my computer rebooted and I signed back in my top and side panel are missing. All the rest of my desktop seems to be there. I opened a terminal and entered the command 'xfce4-panel' I got the message "xfce4-panel: there is already and instance running" yet neither of my panels are showing up. I have tried logging out and logging back in several times and still no panel. I'm running Xubuntu 12.04 64-bit.

On the advice of someone I tried reinstalling the xfce4-panel. Now my panels show up but my desktop doesn't. This was the code they had me use:

sudo apt-get -f install --reinstall xfce4-panel

Found the solution from the advice from another forum
