Okay, too bad I wasn't able to give you the proper information to tackle this bug and taking measures to prevent this bug from ever occurring again with anybody. My 'fix' was when I finally decided to re-install my entire machine a couple of weeks ago (not just because of this issue), and up until

One more thing I remember (if anyone ever runs into this problem again and happens to stumble upon this report) - the problem temporarily went away when I didn't log out of Gnome properly (but used CTRL-ALT- Backspace for example). The next time I logged out of Gnome properly, the problem

As I mentioned in the initial bugreport, this problem does not seem to affect other users on the system. So I guess the only thing I can do to permanently rid myself of this problem is removing all of my settings or create a new account and start using that one? The thing I hate most about this

One day later - the problem's back again. Will try removing .gnome2 now, perhaps that 'fixes' something. ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Incomplete -- notification area won't hold applets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/252722 You received this bug notification

Well, seems like I 'solved' the problem by deleting the entire top panel and re-creating it from scratch. After logging out and back in again, the notification area worked as normal again. Of course, this is just a workaround and not a real solution to whatever was causing this problem. I'll

but I'd like to know what it is and what's causing it, so we can prevent this problem to be causing any trouble to future Ubuntu users (or at least find a decent workaround) :) no idea about what could do that though, you can try to move .gnome2 away and see if that fixes the issue, etc --

there is nothing about the issue in the log, that's not weird since the issue seems to be that the notification area is not working correctly but applets are, is the notification area correctly set on the gnome- panel when you get the bug? -- notification area won't hold applets

Well that's the funny part - I never changed anything from the default Ubuntu settings when it comes to the notification area. What I did try when this problem had occurred several times, is to remove the notification area and then re-add it to the panel. This didn't solve the problem. Is there

Sebastian, thanks for your reply. I'm using Ubuntu 8.04.1, with all updates installed. I've attached .xsession-errors. The notification area is just the Ubuntu default in the upper right corner, left of the clock. It's kind of weird that the Volume Control applet doesn't seem to be suffering from
