How do I set the launcher to always show in Unity 2d?
Solution 1:
For 11.10
The following terminal commands will set the launcher to always show:
First install the dconf-tools:
sudo apt-get install dconf-tools
Then input these lines to configure the launcher:
dconf write /com/canonical/unity-2d/launcher/hide-mode 0
dconf write /com/canonical/unity-2d/launcher/use-strut true
