So, I hear there's some major changes to Ubuntu 11.10. With 11.04 I've been using the GNOME classic desktop, which I'm told will no longer be present. I briefly tried Unity with 11.04 but found it mostly unusable for my needs, but I hear there have been some improvements. I'd like to know if there's any way I can implement some of my current desktop setup into the new version.
1. I currently have a top panel with custom application launchers on it and a drawer with custom Firefox launchers in it, each one set to a different profile (I use different profiles for browsing, web dev, extension dev, etc.).
2. I have an autohiding panel on the right side of the screen which has GNOME widgets for displaying CPU, memory, disk, and network usage and hardware temperature.
Is there any way to set this stuff up in Ubuntu 11.10?
