I'm afraid that doesn't mean anything to me. Perhaps somebody with more
insight will come along and see this.

Interestingly I had to kill it twice. After running pkill at first the panel
disappeared for a second then it auto-started (WOW!). I ran the command again
and the panel was gone. Then I started the panel by gnome-panel command and
it loaded but I got this:
~$ pkill gnome-panel
~$ pkill gnom
I guess it's best to only launch it once and wait it to crash. I don't know
what happens if you launch more than one. If it runs you can remove the
process with pkill gnome-panel(that'll kill all gnome-panels should there be
more than one running)
Can I keep launching panel from terminal repeatedly till it crashes or just
once after starting up the system. Can I stop the process and relaunch it
again if that is a good idea at all?
It didn't crash after I'd entered gnome-panel in the terminal but I got this:

Probably the panel crashes. To perhaps find out why try running it from a
terminal as suggested by davidnotcoulthard. (Leave the term window open you
launch the panel from and hope for a crash, then should one happen look at
the term window to see a potential error message.) You can launch a
Your solution worked right away. However, I hoped to find someone who had
experienced such a problem and figured the cause out. Anyway, thanks for the
wonderful workaround.
Opening the terminal and running gnome-panel would be a rather good
solution.
You can probably bring the panel back by Alt+F2 and running gnome-panel. It's
harder to say what the actual problem is.
Hello!
It's been a while since I noticed that the GNOME panel wasn't loading every
time I turned my machine on. The icons are in place and I can open them.
However, my system is unusable since I cannot start a program normally (I
suppose I could from terminal or the binaries' folder manuall
