    I think the date on that link is from 2011, and 12.04 this does not work

    Yes, the second response in the above link has a link to a bug report and quote from Mark Shuttleworth.

    It is not possible in 12.04.

    That is a shame, I hate it on the left, always hitting something with the mouse by accident.

    It doesn't work because moving the launcher is not supported in 12.04.

    I think it can be compiled to be compatible for 12.04 but its way too difficult task. Maybe some expert can do it...

    It's easier to get used to it on the left as the developers intended it to be.

    The issue of "always hitting something with the mouse by accident. " can be sorted out by adjusting the sensitivity.

    Most people hate it on left side. And i dont think that ubuntu doesnt know it.
    So why doesnt they moves it to lower part of screen? Or better option to give an option for its placement for user comfort.

    I wonder if theyll fix this in future...
