Public bug reported:

After I exit a program ran in full screen mode (for example a game like Planet 
Pinguin Racer), the icons on the top panel are almost always moved to a random 
order. Normally I have a very default layout of the panel (that is: shutdown 
button furthest right, date and time, volume, WLAN strength, weather and system 
load monitorin...). After closing an application that was ran in full screen 
mode, the shutdown button for example may have moved from the right hand corner 
to the middle of the panel. Most often there are several icons that have moved 
at the same time.

To avoid this, I have locked all the icons, but it does not seem to
help.

I am running Compiz Fusion under Ubuntu 7.10. If Compiz is ON, it is
almost 100% sure that the icons will get mixed. If Compiz is OFF, they
remain on their proper locations on almost always (I would approximate
that it happens only in 5% of the cases if Compiz is OFF).

I use Ubuntu 7.10 in two computers. The other has a Matrox G550 card
(not capable of Compiz) and the other has an ATI Mobility Radeon 7500
(Compiz is used on this one). I have experienced the same problem on
both of these computers. However, on the ATI machine, this bug has
really bothered me because of its increased appearance due to Compiz.


This bug is very similar to this one (but on my computers it occurs after 
running applications in _full screen_ and that is why I reported this as a new 
bug):
