gconftool-2 --type int --set /apps/avant-window-navigator/panel/monitor_x_offset 1900
gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/avant-window-navigator/panel/monitor_force true

Getting the right path you can use the “gconf-editor”-programm.

NOTE: Doesn’t work on Ubuntu 11.10 (neither is applied to a running awn, not a newly restarted)

But if you get it working on 9.10, please post back, so other Ubuntu fans, including myself, can follow. Thank you, /Toly @Prince,

You are awesome! Very cool - I was looking for this for several days until found your website. The only thing for anybody who will follow the described approach would be to restart their PC after reconfiguring the %gconf.xml. Again - Big Thanks! Yey! You are awesome!
