Got it! What was messing up the panel and mouse clicks was my xmodmap button mapping on the mouse. I've been using this since 7.04, but it appears that things got a lot more sophisticated recently, and you shouldn't use xmodmap for button mapping unless you really do want to modify the settings of

Further info - it looks like disabling tooltips on both firefox and the panel has resulted in fewer problems. The symptom which lead to me trying this was tiny tooltip coloured squares appearing near the panel, and really odd modal behaviour in Firefox in addition to the panel hanging. There have

I've been having too much problems with 10.04 on my computer. General slowness, keyboard not working on system startup sometimes (so I can't enter my user password, I only could use the mouse, but when executing the restart command from the shutdown menu, I got kernel panics, I'm sure they were

I won't know for sure until a few days has passed without this problem re-occurring, but I think I may have found out what was going on, on my machine at least. Looking at the apps/panel settings in gconf-editor I noticed that the entry which contained the settings for the workspace switcher had

@jpangamarca, The first attempt to get a backtrace did not work well. Gnome-panel has a very long list of dependencies though, and I only installed the debug symbols for gnome-panel itself. The effect that I got was that when the problem occurred the gnome debugger seemed to make the problem worse

Can anyone suggest a smaller set of debug packages to install than the whole list of gnome-panel dependencies which might help get a meaningful backtrace? -- Gnome Panel hangs and renders touchpad and mouse unusable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/608833 You received this bug notification

I've had this problem since 9.10. It only started affecting me badly enough to want to do something yesterday, and now I find there is a bug report for it. Here's my setup, which differs in a number of ways to jpangamarca's - specifically, I'm using the open source radeon driver and I'm not using

@JimP, please try to get the backtrace. I'll still try too, but something happened: Just yesterday I disabled the nvidia propietary driver to see if that was causing the nautilus and gnome-panel hangs, but guess I'll never know because after disabling it, all I got on system startup was a black

Thanks for the report, could you attach your ~/.xsession-errors file to the report? would be also nice to get a backtrace of the gnome-panel hang, please have a look to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash ; thanks in advance. ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided

.xsession-errors has been attached. But I've restarted my system already, is that file still useful? Or should I post it again when the crash ocurrs? I'll post the backtrace when the program hangs again. Thanks. ** Attachment added: xsession-errors
