[SOLVED] Z11 - System Monitor Applet needs to be reset

I added the system monitor applet to the taskbar. I found the info to be good but a little too big, so I shrunk some components. Things starts to shift in the window, so I tried the MOVE option which made it worse. Now everything is overlapped

How can I reset this back to the default layout? I cant seem to locate the settings anywhere

Hi, can you right-click the system monitor applet and select 'unpin launcher'? TRY that first. Keep us posted.

If I right click on the applet, I get:
Dock Preferences
Icon Foreground
Icon Background
Icon Text
About AWN System Monitor

*no unpin launcher

OK, I would start over by removing system-monitor via the terminal:

Code:

sumo apt-get purge gnome-system-monitor

then do a system update:

Code:

sudo apt-get update

Next reboot machine and reinstall gnome-system-monitor.

I removed/updated/installed gnome-system-monitor
However the layout is still all jumbled overlaying on top of each other

Would the settings be located somewhere in .config?

OK, try the advice here and let us know what happens:

That seemed to have fixed it

Code:

rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity
logout
login

Thank you
