This sounds like exactly the trouble I'm having, but on my 8.04 test machine, not my 7.10 machines.
gnome-panel locks up, only notification area icons work (except for the exit/quit button, it doesn't respond). I have to ctrl+alt+backspace, at which point the panel doesn't come back. Next time it crashes I'll see if alt+f2 works, but from what I recall it doesn't. I can always just leave a terminal window open on the desktop so I can kill the process that way. After restarting x, when I sign in of course gnome-panel doesn't come back. Some system variables: - ATI 9800 Pro running open source ATI drivers and compiz fusion - single 1600x1200 display - gnome-panel 1:2.21.5-0ubuntu1 -- Gnome-panel hangs and allocates all possible ram. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/154504 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
