Bug Description

I am unsure of the correct names, but I am talking about the toolbar that has
the time in the bottom right corner that has the applications/places/system
menu's (will reffer to as APS), and the toolbar that displays open windows (will
reffer to as W).

I was previously using Hoary, and I moved the bars so the APS was at the bottom
above W. Then I upgraded to Breezy and decided I would preffer APS to be at the
very bottom, with W above it. It will allow me to move the toolbars as I wish,
but on reboot the settings are always forgotten.

Thanks for your bug report. Do you get a "Save this session." dialog, when you
logout? If so, would you mind trying to click it and see if that works? If so,
you can use Applications -> System tools -> Configuration Editor to set
/apps/gnome-session/options/auto-save-session to True (checked checkbox) and it
should be saved automatically. Hope that helps.
