I can confirm this in Hardy and Karmic. VERY annoying bug. More noticeable on a laptop than a desktop as laptops are turned on and off so often; laptops are also slower to find and show the icons.
I tried Karl Martin's xautomation fix but it didn't work, possibly because the menu isn't yet loaded on the screen when the click is performed. -- GNOME "Main Menu" panel applet slow to open on first click (NOT compiz related) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/12040 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
