Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
When I upgraded from karmic to lucid today I found that on login gnome
panel hung (100% CPU and unresponsive) (I was expecting it to login
successfully and show me my shiny new lucid desktop).
Based on the fact that it was flickering a bit I thought this might be
because I have both my 'top' and 'bottom' panels at the top (as this was
more reliable when switching between having 1 and two screens laid out
vertically) I used vim to edit the
'/apps/panel/toplevels/bottom_panel_screen0/orientation' key to 'bottom'
rather than 'top' (using a shell I sued to from another user account).
This mean that I could login again.
Hopefully this bug will be fairly easy to find and fix as the cause is
well defined and ubuntu-bug should hopefully provide any other needed
information.
Thank you.
