Thank you for hint on the usage of gconftool-2. It really makes a difference. For a long time I did not have any problems with icons in the panel, since the end of the Hardy Heron era, until about a couple of weeks ago, all of them went biserck, and either disappeared or shifted in place. Again, thank you!
