I was messing around in ATI Catalyst with an external display and somehow caused this desktop problem (see bmp attached)




note the multiple icons along the top and weirdness along the bottom.

I tried removing my .gnome profile but no use.
Is this something related to ATI Catalyst or gnome? Any ideas on getting the desktop back?

Ubuntu 12.04 x64
ATI graphics

solved I think..

this takes care of the upper panel.

For the lower panel problem of multiple instances of an open program, you just need to either remove that feature form the panel or delete the panel, then add a new panel and add the feature back in.

Done!! hope this helps someone in the future.
