I turned on the auto hide of the TOP panel on gnome desktop. I does hide but I still see like 2 or 3 pixel lines of the panel??? How can I completely hide the top panel? I tried change the number of pixels in the panel it always still shows a couple pixel lines. I have a dell inspiron 8200 laptop. THanks, for any suggestions.
