On the extreme right of the panel there is a cashew (slightly hidden in a 
bubble on some distros).  Click on that and the panel configuration extra 
panel comes up.  Hover your mouse over the icon you want to move and a diamond 
composed of arrows appears.  Use that to pull the icon to where you want it.  
Then close the config panel by hitting the red X.
