Bug#500522: fbpanel: Doesn't draw itself on initial login

[Ken Bloom]

Package: fbpanel
Version: 4.12-1.1
Severity: normal


I'm starting fbpanel in my .xsession, before starting my window
manager (fluxbox). Invariably, the application launch bar doesn't draw
itself, and I have to `killall fbpanel && fbpanel' in order for
fbpanel to draw itself. (It still responds to clicks and shows
tooltips, even in the first doomed execution).

If it helps to pinpoint the problem, I have fluxbox set to make
fbpanel sticky, so it appears on all of my desktops.
