I've ported the patch from Gnome Bug 314235 forward to the latest jaunty version 2.26.0-ubuntu7 of gnome-panel. Attached is the patch file already in quilt format. I've also applied this patch and built gnome- panel to my PPA for testing. Brave souls can try the patched version of the panel and report back to me their experiences.
https://edge.launchpad.net/~ryan.maki/+archive/ppa This is the first patch I've distributed, please be nice. I have been testing it on my work and home laptops and neither of them have caught fire. It also seems to help prevent the (right-side) icons moving around on screen changes. If you are going to test it, keep in mind, this keeps gnome-panel from changing the icon positions when the screen changes, but you may already have out-of-place positions for your panel applets in GConf. As Karl Hegbloom suggested, *if you know what you are doing* you can update the GConf settings manually to set the correct order. If this tests well I'll start the process of getting this moved upstream (and into Ubuntu of course). ** Attachment added: "Patch from Gnome Bug 314235 ported to 2.26.0 code" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/29611053/96_dont-screw-up-the-panel-on-resize.patch -- GNOME Panel icons (on right side) move apparently randomly on session start in some situations https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44082 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
