Public bug reported:
Short repro steps:
1. Add "System Monitor" as a gnome panel.
2. Install and run the game "supertux" (or basically any other fullscreen SDL
game).
Detailed repro steps:
1. Boot Hardy live CD.
2. Right click gnome panel in the top gray area, maybe 2 cm left of the blue
help icon.
3. Select the "Add to Panel" menu item
4. Select "System Monitor" (it's quite far down the list with greenish icon).
5. Add universe as source in apt.
6. Run "sudo apt-get install supertux" to install a SDL game.
7. Select Applications::Games::Supertux2
Expected results:
Gnome panel items should not engage in Z-order fighting with supertux while
supertux is running in fullscreen.
Actual results:
Gnome insists on updating the panel CPU meter and also some other thing so
basically two big black boxes appear along the top of the screen inside
supertux. They just randomly flicker and it makes the game more or less
unplayable.
