I just updated from Lucid to Natty (thought it was going to be Maverick, but my About Ubuntu menu shows that it is Natty, which "was released in April 2011" - who knew the developers had mastered time travel?!)

In any case, the default date/time applet in my gnome panel is now displaying on two lines (date on top of time) instead of one line like it used to.

Any way to get it back on one line?

I've tried the instructions shown here, but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
