hello, yes, when it freezes the panel will try to use 100% cpu time. The drawer that is giving me the problem has only launchers for apps installed with wine. I created most of the launchers by dragging the icons created by wine from the desktop to the drawer.
And, the reason maybe the panel was freezing before when I moved a drawer around on the panel was because I had that same drawer placed directly on the panel, and just touching it would cause the bug (!) ** Attachment added: "gconf_apps_panel_dump" http://librarian.launchpad.net/2991212/gconf_apps_panel_dump -- using nested drawers in a panel causes gnome-panel to freeze https://launchpad.net/bugs/46438 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
