gnomegnome-shellgnome-shell-extensionmessaging-traypanel
Running Ubuntu 12.04 with Gnome Shell 3.4. After enabling Bottom panel extension (to remove annoying Message tray/bottom panel/hot-corner at the bottom; You know what I am talking about(: ), still a "half" message pop-up after adding USB drive. Well, sorry, dont know how to explain it correctly. Maybe someone have any clue how to solve this thing and get rid of that?
Here is a screenshot:
The error message you are reporting with gnome-tweak-tool occurs when either logging into Gnome-Classic or if logging into Gnome-Shell - but it doesnt allow a full Gnome-Shell GUI but reverts to Gnome-fallback.
From your latest edit - this is the case - the screenshot shows that you are using gnome-fallback. This occurs when 3D acceleration fails.
N.B. Gnome-Shell should look like:
To get the full Gnome-Shell GUI, check that your virtualbox settings have 3D acceleration checked, 128MB VGA RAM and that your host graphics supports 3D Hardware acceleration.
An enterprising developer has claimed to come up with just this solution - for me it does work with a small tweak described below.
To get this to work with 11.10:
Extract the source.
Rename the folder from gnome-shell-extension-remove-bottom-bar to remove_bottom_bar@k2z.com
Then in this folder edit the file metadata.json
Replace the contents of this file with the following, save and close:
{
"shell-version": [ "3.2" ],
"uuid": "remove_bottom_bar@k2z.com",
"name": "Remove bottom bar",
"description": "Removes the Message tray (bottom bar). I recommend to use with gnome-shell-gnome2-notifications extention by rcmorano.",
"url": "http://www.k2z.com",
"version": 3
}
Then move the folder to the location ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions
Logout and login and activate the extension using gnome-tweak-tool
