Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-panel I have a Dell XPS M1710 laptop running pure up-to-date Hardy final. When logging in, I often (but not always) see a bug where the system tray loads in a state where all of the system tray icons for my session startup programs are "popped out" into tiny windows at the top-left of the screen (see screenshots). The icons for the standard set of gnome applets behave correctly though. When in this state, any system tray program loaded after login will ALSO display its icon in a tiny popped-out window. However, the condition can be cleared by running "killall gnome-panel" (forcing it to restart), but sometimes you must do this several times for the problem to go away. Similarly, if the bug in NOT manifesting, restarting gnome-panel in this way will eventually bring it back. I have noticed that when the bug occurs, the popped-out windows usually start showing up BEFORE the system tray has fully loaded, which suggests to me that the problem may be due to the system tray taking too long to load. The bug occurs both with and without desktop effects enabled. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 8.04 Release: 8.04 $ apt-cache policy gnome-panel gnome-panel: Installed: 1:2.22.1.2-0ubuntu3 Candidate: 1:2.22.1.2-0ubuntu3 Version table: *** 1:2.22.1.2-0ubuntu3 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- System tray loads with all non-applet icons "popped out" into windows https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223418 You received this bug notification because you are subscribed to gnome- panel in ubuntu.
