I have seen the GNOME panel crash plenty of times, but it normally restarts automatically, and all the applets reappear with little or no lost state. > When I ogged in this A.M. my taskbar and pager in my panel indow had > disappeared.

Quick fix: From a shell prompt, issue the command "panel &" (without the quotes, of course). Problem analysis: What distro and release is he using? What window manager? Check the setting for the GNOME session state, which are controlled by various capplets under "GNOME Menu -> Programs -> Settings -> Session". The "panel" program should be listed, with "Style" of "Respawn". -- Ben Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do not | | necessarily represent the views or policy of any other person, entity or | | organization.
