Sebastien, I went to the Accessibility dialog and un-checked "Enable assistive technologies" and closed the dialog. Afterwards, my gnome-panel did seem to stop freezing.
I then went and re-checked the "Enable assistive technologies" checkbox, and gnome-panel continued to work properly, and I haven't seen any freezes since despite checking and unchecking this box a couple more times. I'll make sure to report any future freezes. -- gnome-panel freezes upon launching custom launchers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368836 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
