How to remove ( Delete ) the MGSE & Mate packages? not sure I understand the question - if you are asking how do I do a disk image of the installation then use something like CloneZilla - you then will have a good backup that you can simply restore if your installation goes bad for whatever reason. |

installation of driver permission denied ok - I'm a little confused with the question you have now - have you managed to install the driver? Is the only thing you havent done is run sudo aticonfig --initial to complete the installation? |

Why doesn't Skype appear in the upper panel? Have you recently added an application that would normally show up mnimized in the system tray? The reason why I ask - I've see some reports of QT apps causing issues when they minimize in Natty... Perhaps try disabling most/all of the startup apps except for skype and see if this resolve your issue - trial and error, readd each startup app one by one... |

Accidentally added two “Shut Down…” red power button icons to gnome desktop. Can't remove is this the gnome-classic desktop or the gnome-shell desktop? Can you add a link to a screenshot so that we can see the issue? |
