Reset GNOME Panels

[DishBreak]

Hi All,

I keep both panels (the menubar and taskbar) at the top of the screen. I recently tried the "autohide" option, and now...well, both my panels have disappeared. All I have left at the top is a white strip. (I attached a screenshot)

How can I roll back the panels to their default setting? My desktop isn't usable like this >.<

Haah. That's what I get for googling the wrong term.



1. rm -r ~/.gconf/apps/panel or just move the folder elsewhere if you want to back it up.
2. Log out of Gnome, then back in.
3. There is no step 3.
