Just to give you some more info, my current setup is an ubuntu64-10...@intel i7 and i must admit this release is unbelievably faster than any other previous version of Ubuntu: after trying out the livecd i just got my /home/ folder backed up from the previous installation (ubuntu64-9.04) and restored it on a brand new lucid installation: everything is fine, everything works as expected (although the audio stack has other problems on its own..) but this gdm/gnome- panel/gnome-applets problem i'm sure i never had it before in Jaunty, and i was using the very same nvidia-proprietary drivers' version as i'm using now, so this is pretty odd.
@Kupfer: my NetworkManager applet has never thrown a problem, hell, NM and radiotray icons are just those unaffected by the problem. I also noticed my gnome applets problem not always presents itself whenever the machine can't load gdm: sometimes the problem persists across multiple "sudo killall gnome-panel" killage too, so that i can issue as much as 18 of them and still i get those sensors corrupted. I usually also win a reboot here, because panels are definitely phucked for the entire session and gdm will not restart, hanging there in the middle with the other seven console hanged as well. -- visual corruption affecting several panel applets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439448 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
