Panels only appear in one workspace
When I installed Ubuntu, I had two default panels, but they only appeared in one of my four workspaces. A friend walked me through deleting and recreating these panels so that they would appear on all four workspaces, then told me how to customize the panels to my liking. These changes remained in place after restarting the computer.
Today my computer crashed. When I got it back up, the panels in workspace one were exactly as I had customized them. The panels in workspaces two through four were nonexistent. Deleting and recreating the panels did not, in all but one instance, make panels appear in any other workspaces. I have no idea what I did differently in that one instance. Also, following that one instance, creating a panel in workspace two and moving it to the top edge of the screen put that panel parallel to the top edge of the screen, with just enough space above it to fit the panel that only appeared in workspace one.
My friend told me to copy .gconf/apps/panel to another folder and to delete the original folder, and then log out and back in. This restored the panels that were there when I installed Ubuntu, but the panels still only appear in one workspace, and deleting and recreating them continues to be ineffective.
What do I need to do to get the panels to appear in all my workspaces?
