… I will NOT be returning to panels… I like AWN that much!''
==Background==
I find '''Awn''' to allows me to work very efficiently on my computer system, and provides a very clean interface.
I no longer require a separate panel to show applications that are currently running, the docking station places an arrow below the icon to indicate the number of instances of that application. If I require to go to that instance, I just click on the icon and select that instance from a menu...
==General Tasks==
3. Remove all panels, so you are just using AWN.
==Installing AWN==
'''INSTALLING AWN'''
===Replacing Gnome with AWN===
STEPS:
:*After installing Avant Window Manager, run the program (under '''Accessories''' section), right-click on the panel to edit preferences, and select to run AWN upon start-up.
:*Next, as super-user, edit the following file: '''/usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome-fallback.session'''
:*Remove the occurrence of '''gnome-panel'''
:*Lock-out of your current session.
:*Prior to logging into your session, select your default session as "Classic Gnome" (with or without effects)
