Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
The clock applet stops updating when I hide the panel in which it
resides. I have a single panel at the top, right-hand side of my screen
with system tray, firefox, workspace (5 columns 4 rows), gnome-main-
menu, system monitor (cpu, ram, network, swap, load, harddisk all
enabled) and then the clock applet on a dual-screen nvidia card. When I
hide the panel and then un-hide the panel, the clock stops visibly
updating. Copying the time works fine, and the time itself is fine.
it's just displaying the wrong time as it sits in the panel. Changing
the preferences (I have 24 hour, date, seconds, weather, temperature all
set in Preferences) starts the clock back to updating again, but only
until the panel is hidden again.
Upon working more, I noticed that this is a problem with the Panel, or
at least the Clock applet and system tray. You'll perhaps notice the
firefox artifacts around the skype emblem in the system tray.
Additionally, I've noticed that the istanbul system tray icon, when
istanbul has been stopped but the panel isn't updating will suddenly
change from the stale "pause" it had when the panel was hidden to the
red "ready" icon that it should have, but only when the clock applet
starts updating again.
