Sigh! Oneiric made things worse for me -- the Launcher and Dash are now pushed always to the far left, no matter which monitor is primary. I guess this "fixes" some issues, but it makes it quite unusable in my multi-monitor setup.
Because I don't want to abandon Unity entirely (there's a lot to love about it), I'd like to suggest these workarounds for the Launcher/Dash, which are good enough for me, kinda. Use DockbarX instead of the Launcher (and set the Launcher to autohide). DockbarX supports Unity quicklists! And of course is very configurable. The folk at WebUpd8 keep an up-to-date PPA for it: https://launchpad.net/~nilarimogard/+archive/webupd8 Note that you want to launch "dockx" for the standalone dock (DockbarX can also work inside the AWN dock). Also, BigRZA made a nice Unity theme for it: http://bigrza.deviantart.com/art/unite-11-04-theme-197980167 There are a few alternatives for the Dash, and all are available in the Ubuntu repositories: GNOME Do, Kupfer, Synapse, Launchy. My favorite is Synapse: it's minimal and looks good. Unfortunately, none of these support the Unity Lens feature. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/668415 Title: Movement of Unity launcher To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/null/+bug/668415/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
