Joaquin : TOMA ? Googled it, didn't find :)
All : hmm, I'm not sure this is relevant but this seems interesting.
Usually I only keep a top panel and corruption appears in the indicators
area and disappears with a "killall gnome-panel". I recently started my
/home from scratch and kept everything as conservative & "out of the
box" as possible.
I noticed that : corruption appears here more frequently in the bottom
panel ("show desktop" applet) (and once in a while in the top panel near
the canonical indicators). So this seems unrelated to the indicators.
More importantly, when calling "killall gnome-panel" corruption doesn't
disappear systematically. It actually makes it happen about 50% of the
cases !
In other word : starting from an "out of the box"' Ubuntu install with
Compiz, corruption may be triggered when calling a couple of times
"killall gnome-panel" and can thus be reproduced very easily. Also, it
is thus 1) not related to the indicators 2) not related to the GNOME
startup itself as it can be reproduced afterwards
We may add 3) seems to be related to themes that use the Murrine GTK
engine ? 4) is definitely triggered when Compiz is enabled.
I'm making assumptions and definitely didn't re-read the hundreds of
comments of this bugreport. Do you think guys we could/should set up a
wiki page or a poll or another statistical tool to have a better
consciousness / visibility of the different factors at play ?
(also : noone interested by a bounty ?)
