How to use Mate-Panel in Gnome-Fallback Mode

rated 0 times [ 0] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 1206 / 1 Year ago, sat, may 6, 2023, 9:14:04

Is it possible to run mate-panel inside gnome-fallback mode? Unity is annoying and gnome-fallback is not real gnome 2, so it would be nice if I could combine mate and gnome-fallback.

I didn't have much luck adding gnome applets to the mate panel, here is what I'm using, on a mate-panel 1.4.0:

Left panel

a few launchers

Show Desktop Button 1.4.0

CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor 1.4.0

MATE Sensors Applet 1.2.0

System Monitor 1.4.0

Shut down button (not sure what flavor/version)

Bottom panel

mintmenu 5.3.8

Window List 1.4.0

Notification Area 1.4.0

Main Menu (another menu icon from MATE, it doesn't have an about box)

Weather Report 1.4.0

Workspace Switcher 1.4.0

The mate-panel is from the mate-desktop.org repositories, mintmenu is installed locally, and Ubuntu version is from raring 13.04 repositories. Themes are from webupd8team ppa's.

I mainly use mate-session configured with compiz, although you can launch mate-panel in a gnome-session in either Unity or Gnome shell.
