Missing workspace switcher after install Macbuntu

Last few days I was trying to install the Macbuntu theme for my Ubuntu 10.10 OS. The theme is awesome, however I noticed that the workspace switcher was gone in the panel. This causing me problem when switching from one workspace to another, then I starts search for solution via my Mentor (Uncle Google) and then I found out that the solution is as easy as drinking water...

First RIGHT-CLICK on the panel, then click Add to Panel

Scroll down to end and select Workspace switcher


Then, Add and you are done!

Running Matlab 2007 in Window 7 ???

The first post I am going to share is how to run Matlab 2007 in Windows 7. There are a lot of solutions but I am going to show you the easiest.

First, when you run Matlab 2007 in Windows 7, you probably will see something like this:
Well, I still not very understand the error but I think it is related to something about graphic/resolution. Anyway, I am not interested in that, I just want to run Matlab only.

Now the solution I always used is RIGHT-CLICK in desktop and choose Personalize, then you will see lots themes offered by Window 7. Scroll down and choose Window Classic theme, and OK. Then run again your Matlab and the error should not be appeared again.

That's all. Happy Matlab-ing...
( I will try to post another solution where you do not need to change the theme in Windows 7 in later time)

Update:
I found another much simpler solution.
RIGHT-CLICK the Matlab icon and choose Properties.
In the appear window, choose Compatibility tab.
Select the "Run this program in compatibility mode for:"
Then, in the drop list, choose Windows Vista (SP1 & SP2 work as well, but not Windows XP)
Apply. Then you no need to change the theme anymore. Enjoy~
