Thanks for your bug report, that's a quite old bug without activity, is there any chance if you could try if that's still an issue with the current version?

(virtual machine running under Xen 4.1). When I connect via VNC, I can see the Unity launcher and top menu bar. But if I try to drag an application from the Dash/Search application to the Unity launcher, it doesn't stick. I can't add an App to the Unity Launcher. But I am able to right click an icon in the Unity Launcher and choose "Unlock from Launcher" successfully. So I am able to delete Apps from the Unity Launcher. (the deletion is persistent on the actual Console after logging out then back in again.) FYI: I have the same results when going from a 64-bit LucidLynx RemoteDesktopViewer client, to the 32-bit vnc4server PrecisePangolin laptop. FYI: I am able to connect to a 64-bit vnc4server LucidLynx machine and add an application to the quick launch section on the top menu bar which is also noticable on the real Console of that machine (after logging in and then out). I thing that is a comparable test that shows the console should be alterable via VNC. Summary: Can anyone change the Unity Launcher on PrecisePangolin via any VNC Server product (preferably vnc4server).
