I got error message after installed this. “The panel encountered a problem while loading “OAFIID:GlobalMenu_PanelApplet”.”

Can you fixed that??

Yes, it worked well with me, thank a lot, now I have my opensuse 11.0 100% mac interface after applying the themes.

Great work really.

if had problem with applet show “Enable Global Menu for GTK application” try ctrl+alt+backspace.
Login and right click on the applet. Choose “Preferences” and then check the first option: “Enable Global Menu For GTK Applications”.
Big Thanks!!!

ps.: now i try my down bar show big icons when mouse on that

@relikwie : Maybe you got a revision with broken prefs dialogue. Remove your gnome-globalmenu-0.7 folder and checkout an earlier revision or, if it still doesn’t work, an older revision using the -r option at checkout like this :
svn co -r 2158 http://gnome2-globalmenu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ gnome-globalmenu-0.7
(the rev 2158 is the last I’ve managed to compile here, but there is for sure earlier revisions that work).

Followed all steps and sucessfully compiled and installed GM, but while adding it to a panel I get the hit to enable it via preferences. So I click preferences which shows me a minimal dialog, resizing this the dialog doesnt contain any widgets (settings).

Any clue?
