[Bug 47602] Re: gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login
Unfortunately, I can no longer provide feedback on this bug. As mentioned on 2006-08-16, I permanently made the problem go away as the problem was getting too annoying, especially when I had solution waiting in the wings (see 2006-08-10). -- gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login https://launchpad.net/bugs/47602 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for following up. Unfortunately it's not easy now to find out what caused the problem. If it should re-occur, please re-open the bug.

[Bug 47602] Re: gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login
dholbach: is this likely the same bug as all the gnome-panel hangs on startup bugs? The solution (killall gnome-panel) seems the same---the bug is still here and occuring about 1 time in 2 for me; Rejected is perhaps the not the best tag, the issue still exists. -- gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login https://launchpad.net/bugs/47602 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 47602] Re: gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login
Reopening this. The problem is still here, even if we don't know how to debug it yet. It could be one of the gnome-applets (wish I think are loaded by gnome- panel) causing input to hang. ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Status: Rejected = Confirmed -- gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login https://launchpad.net/bugs/47602 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 47602] Re: gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login
I'd be interested to know if it still happens when making /apps/panel/general/applet_id_list (in gconf) an empty list (make sure to save the previous value). (you'll then only see menus and launchers) Also, does it also mean you can't add anything to the panel? -- gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login https://launchpad.net/bugs/47602 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 47602] Re: gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login
This looks like it might be racey. Doing: killall gnome-panel *sometimes* brings back the panel (rather than displaying it, but the panel not responding). However doing: strace -p `pidof gnome-panel` immediately after killing the previous panel, allows the panel to start successfully; possibly the ptrace was slowing it down sufficiently. -- gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login https://launchpad.net/bugs/47602 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

What is gnome-panel racing against? For the record, doing: killall gnome-panel *always* brings back gnome-panel for me. I've done this 100's of times. :-( -- gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login https://launchpad.net/bugs/47602 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 47602] Re: gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login
I just made a significant discovery on this bug. If I add a new panel and populate it, this new panel works correctly! The old panels still fail as reported and can still be revived via the killall. Now I have a predicament. I assume that I can make this problem go away for me by just making new panels to completely mimic my old ones and destroying the old ones. Will that harm the proper resolution of this bug? I can hold for a while if needed -- I've been living with this for several months now, but it sure would be nice to say bye bye bug. -- gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login https://launchpad.net/bugs/47602 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The configuration is stored to gconf. Are you sure you didn't simply remove the menubar applet from your panel and need to had it again? -- gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login https://launchpad.net/bugs/47602 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 47602] Re: gnome panels are empty (show nothing) after login
Positive I did not simply remove menubar applet. Both the top and bottom panels are empty, void, devoid of all life and 100% non- responsive -- just a gray pair of gray bars, until I right-click desktop to open a gnome-terminal (via nautilus-open-terminal) and exec killall gnome-panel. It seems that gnome-panel initializes correctly on all but the first time within my gnome session. Of course, the first time is the most important as the 2nd ... nth times should never be needed.
