    Deleted bottom panel.

    While attempting to install AWN navigator, I deleted the bottom panel. How would I get that back? /noob.

    Right click on the upper panel and then click on new panel... You will have to add then to the new panel whatever you want to put there (windows selector, workspace selector, etc...)

    Right click your remaining panel, select new panel, then drag it where you want it.

    Once you have added icons and 'built' your panel, you can save it by running the following in terminal. The saved file will be named panel_settings and will be on your Desktop. Of course you can name it anything and move it wherever you wish:
    Code:
    gconftool-2 --dump /apps/panel > ~/Desktop/panel_settings
    To restore lost panel shortcuts:
    Code:
    gconftool-2 --load ~/Desktop/panel_settings

    Thank you! But I wasn't specific enough, I meant to ask how to create a new panel, and make it so that I can minimize windows and apps into it again? I made a new panel, but can't open minimized windows/apps from it.

    Right click on the bottom panel, click Add to Panel, choose Window List.

    How would I add nm-applet (the wireless network monitor with the bars) to my new panel? It doesn't seem to be under add to panel.

    nm-applet should appear automagically in your notification area. Perhaps you removed your notification area when you deleted your bottom panel? Just add the notification area. This SHOULD do the trick.

    Yep add a notification area.
