I upgraded again from 9.10 to 10.4.1 yesterday, since I coudn't see the bug on my notebook a week before. But it is still there! I changed orientation to the bottom on the shell in ~/.gconf/apps/panel/toplevels/panel_0/%gconf.xml and could log in again. After putting it back to the top, login was broken again. After adding a new panel to the top and moving the applets to it, then removing the old panel, alle works ok and I can login again with two panels at the top. Unfortunately I have only be able to reproduce this bug once on a seperate demo account: I switched bottom panel to the top. All worked great. Next I switched to human skin and no desktop effects. Then I was not able to login at the demo account! As said, unfortunately I have only been able to reproduce this once, yesterday. If anyone is seriously interested in debugging this issue, I can send him my "buggy" .gconf directory from a backup of mine.
