Title: Gnome panels continuously crash, then reload Status in gnome-panel package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-panel Whew, this one is one annoying bug! After finally getting my second monitor working as a seperate Xscreen with nvidia's proprietary tool, I noticed a weird-looking icon where the Network Manager icon usually is. I should note that both screens have identical panels. except for the Notification Area. This is the default appearance after using the nvidia tool. Anyway, I try to remove this icon. Doesn't work the first time, but the second time, it does. But now all four panels crash and reload, crash and reload, ad infinitum, and the alt+F2 dialog crashes shortly after being opened. I even have to restart the computer after a few minutes, because I get a kernel panic! This does not reccur after the reboot though, strangely, though the panels keep flashing. I finally manage to stop the madness by adding a launcher for the gnome-terminal to my desktop, double-clicking it to get to a terminal, then killing gconfd-2.
