I'm new to Linux . I'm using Ubuntu 11.04 and Gnome classic. I'm using the old Ubuntu desktop, not the new one that came with 11.04.

Can anybody tell me how to get minimised windows in the system tray? Every time I minimise a window it just disappears and I have to use alt+tab every time.

It's hard to tell what happened with so little info, but maybe you lost your windows list applet. Try this:

Move the mouse over one of the panels (either the bar on the top or bottom of the screen), press ALT and, at the same time, right click on the bar.

Select Add to panel, and in the new window select Window List.

Hope that it helps.

The source is this question, but updated to gnome-fallback (mainly you now need to use ALT to bring the menu).

  • Please remember to accept the answer (click the green check) so that it counts as closed. Ask another question for the Hindi dictionary, I have no expertise in this, but this site is full with people with greater knowledge than mine. – Javier Rivera Mar 19 '12 at 17:51
