Hi, I installed gnome-panel2 by: apt-get install gnome-panel2 -t experimental
I thought that was enough. I tried however what you said and upgraded to all experimental packages. (apt-get dist-upgrade -t experimental would have had the same effect as far as I see). The problem however stays the same.
