One thing you could try (don't know if it will help) is to: 1. Start GNOME without the problematic panel applet enabled. 2. From a text console (try ctrl-alt-f1 for instance), start the problematic applet inside of ltrace (apt-get install ltrace). Send the ltrace output to some file.
Point 2 might require some experimentation to find out what command line parameters you need to use to actually be able to start your applet from the command line like that. It's definitely doable, I unforturnatly don't know what's required though. Check /proc/thePIDofSomeOtherApplet/cmdline for hints, or ask somebody who knows something about how panel applets work (I don't...). Don't forget that you might have to set your DISPLAY environment variable before trying this from the console. With a bit of luck, one of the last library calls in the ltrace log file is the call that crashes X. And if X crashes, this bug is probably in X, not in the GNOME panel. But since the GNOME panel is what triggers it, the GNOME panel is probably a good place to start looking. Have fun :-) //Johan 2006/6/10, Frederic Schutz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

My version is: ii xorg 7.0.20 X.Org X Window System [...] Anything I can do to help tracking this ?
