I think i came a cross the same bug. Panel on left or right edge doesn't unhide on mouseover if compiz is running. It does unhide if auto_hide_size is greater than 2 and mouse is positioned somewhere between one pixel and auto_hide_size -1 from the edge.
Unhide works on top/bottom panels. Maybe it's a compiz bug, and mouse position isn't forwarded to the panel? gnome-panel version 2.2.32 Ubuntu 11.04, gnome2 session with compiz 0.9.4+bzr20110415-0ubuntu2 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/421254 Title: gnome-panel will not return from auto-hide with compiz -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
