FIGURE 6.5 The default GNOME desktop is much cleaner than KDE, with a smaller and more
configurable set of panels.
The GNOME panels are highly configurable with a curious collection of applications over
which you have much more control than in KDE. Displaying many of the same characteristics
and applications by default as KDE, the whole look is a bit more pristine (and with
much smaller icons). See Figure 6.5 for a look.
To add an icon to either panel, right-click exactly in the spot where you want the item to

the choices is a weather report with the current temperature and conditions for many
global cities. Select your own location??”or the place you want to be.
