Right-click on desktop, choose "Add Panel". 2. Right click on new panel at top of screen, choose "Panel Settings". 3. Drag the "Screen edge" button to the bottom. 4. Close the settings section by clicking on the red/white X. 5. Right click on the panel, choose "Add widgets". 6. Add menu, device notifier, pager, taskbar, and system tray. Hope this helps. Ravi
