Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
I'll be attaching a screenshot showing the problem. The menu that is on
the far right-hand side of the gnome-panel at the top of the screen that
includes the "logout" and "lock workstation" functionality becomes
unavailable or obscured. The empathy chat (and "broadcast accounts")
integration applet/menu gets double-rendered. About half way through the
standard rendering of the "first" or default section of this applet, the
"corruption" of gnome-panel occurs.
The "corrupted" section doesn't "refresh" or re-render or respond to
mouse clicks. Thus, I can't use the GUI menu there to lock my
workstation, log out, or shut down the workstation.
I'd love to provide further information (besides a screenshot showing
the problem) except that I've waited/lived with this bug for over six
months, always trying to see if I could reliably reproduce the problem.
However, it has simply been far to random and I've decided to report it
anyway. This problem existed on my previous lucid (10.04) install as
well.
