Comment 18 for bug 927303

OK, this is a little odd (and may not be reproducible). I just upgraded my video card and during configuration accidentally enabled xinerama, which resulted in a weird issue with gnome-panel containing multiples of each item. The issue (and fix, see answer 1) is described here:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/133647/gnome-panel-has-multiple-rows-how-to-undo-that

After I used dconf-editor to reset to the defaults shown in that post, my multiload indicator is normal width again (100px)! I used the exact settings described in the post:

object-id-list ['menu-bar', 'indicators', 'show-desktop', 'window-list', 'workspace-switcher']
toplevel-id-list ['top-panel', 'bottom-panel']

Not sure if this will work for anyone else, but it's really nice to have my indicators back...
