Experiencing Gnome 3

At last I got my pen drive and the first thing I tried out was Gnome 3 Live USB Stick and it was splendid. A main transformation was the design of GNOME 3, and as a result it was an all new Gnome experience!

In this article you will get to know how to create a Gnome 3 Live USB Stick.

1. Download the Live Images of Gnome 3 from gnome.org of your choice.

2. Now, download the tarball package of the USB Writer Image and extract it’s contents to a folder.

3. Now navigate to the extracted folder.

4. Prepare the image writer by running this command in a terminal:
$ chmod a+x ./image-usb-stick

5. Now insert the USB storage device you want to make it a Live USB device.

6. Run the image writer script from a terminal:
$sudo ./image-usb-stick path_to_the_live_image.iso

7. Now reboot your system with your USB stick attached.

Enjoy Gnome 3 😛

GNOME Panel Deleted

Deleted your top GNOME panel accidentally in your Fedora Box.Then

1.Right click your panel, then go to New Panel. This would give you a new top panel.

2.Right click the New Panel->Add to Panel.

3.Then  add the following

• User Switcher (A menu to quickly switch between users)
• Menu Bar (A custom menu bar) / Main Menu (The main GNOME menu)
• Notification Area (Area where Notification icons appear)
• Clock (Get the current time and date)

This will give you the basic GNOME Panel. You can add more applets according to your needs.
