If you're looking for an easy workaround, then I'll present you with one: use two floating top panels, one for the menubar, and other stuff you have on the left, and one for clock, session menus, notifiers and other things you have on the right. As your resolution changes back and forth, the panels are moved back and forth, but the icons stay where they are relative to each other.
Problem solved. At least for now. -- 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
