OMG. Same Bug here on PackardBell EasyNote MX66-203 Notebook with NVIDIA 7300GO, nvidia driver and Dual Monitor with seperate XServers (Laptop-LCD:1280x800 CRT:1024x768). It happened after deleting the notification area on a panel on the LaptopScreen. Same like Dmitry Ostasevich sayed. Panel restarts and crashes. On and on. Seems like the CPU-time is eaten cause of that, I hear the fan.

[Bug 465464] Re: Gnome panels continuously crash, then reload
Ok. I set the panel back! --WITHOUT ADMIN PRIVILEGE-- I copied following folder contents from my other pc (where panel is still okay) to the notebook (before that I deleted folder-contents on the notebook): ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-settings/gnome-panel ~/.gconf/apps/panel Although I had differend screen resolution on my other pc it worked fine. When copying is done, I just had to power off reboot the laptop -- 4 seconds Powerbutton :-( Why did I not use sudo + ... in console? Two things: 1. xterm randomly looses focus (cause of panel-restarting), so I could not enter admin-password correctly (everything on STRG+ALT+7) 2. wasn't able to use the real console on STRG+ALT+1 (or 2,3,4,5,6), because I never see what I'm typing there. (Ony black screen, maybe wrong video-mode.) I hope Ubuntu 10.04 will be better.

Identical problem here. Have 9.10 32-bit. Using AMD with dual monitors and nvidia drivers. Tried to delete a duplicate icon from the panel and got the crash loop.

[Bug 465464] Re: Gnome panels continuously crash, then reload
Same problem here - very frustrating problem indeed. Thankfully I found this report. Deleting everything in ~/.gconf/apps/panel fixed my problem. This happened when I was trying to reorder the items in the top panel. I think I accidentally selected Delete this panel when I meant to just move an item. I was over the notification area, so it's possible that I removed that though. Either way I ended up with unusable horrible crashing panels which made everything on the screen bounce. I am using two monitors, latest Nvidia driver, and I do have some accessibility stuff turned on. -- Gnome panels continuously crash, then reload https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/465464 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It isn't random... I have the same issue here... it did NOT happen until I upgraded to the 16 Kernel through Update Manager, and YES I too clicked off the icon on the Panel as described in the first post.

I'll confirm it's caused by removing the notification area, and point to a bug in the Debian list that references details: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=547093 I was able to get back in by logging into an xterm session instead of gnome and do the following: cd .gconf/apps/ rm -R -f panel exit Then, log back into a gnome session and the default panel has returned, minus the crash loop.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or challenging to deal with as a '.crash' file. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer. If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart. If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit. If you are using Kubuntu or Xubuntu you can file the crash using /usr/share/apport/apport-qt --crash-file=/var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash in a terminal - where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report. I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding. ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs (desktop-bugs) -- Gnome panels continuously crash, then reload https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/465464 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It only happened once. After I killed gconf2-d, it stopped. Permanently. If you want, I can try to recreate the problem by repeating what I did the first time.

Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete 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.
