I started getting this problem shortly after upgrading to 9.10 from 9.04. At first, logging off and then back on seemed to do the trick.
now, a killall gnome-panel is required to get it to work and, as mentioned above, there seems to be some issue with the weather applet. when the log on/off was working, the wx applet was displayed. now, going the killall route, no weather app and trying to install it does not work either. I have also tried to replace the gnome-panel via the SPM. -- Gnome-panel fails to load various applets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/426185 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
