Not sure if it's related but I sorted the majority of my panel problems by installing the Cantarell font. Should this be a dependency for gnome 3 given it's the default font?
I still get some tearing and some popups are slanted but in general it has been more stable in a Gnome 3 session. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439448 Title: Visual corruption affecting several panel applets Status in Compiz: Invalid Status in Desktop panel for GNOME: New Status in Indicator Applet: Invalid Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “gnome-panel” source package in Lucid: Confirmed Status in “gnome-panel” source package in Maverick: Triaged Status in “gnome-panel” source package in Natty: Triaged Bug description: **********PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU ADD YOUR COMMENT/SCREENSHOT***************** Please take a look at the list of duplicate bugs. Please think on how many people get notified when you add anything to this bug report. Please don't confirm the bug it is already confirmed. Please don't attach further screenshots - we all know how the problem looks. We all appreciate your involvement, but read previous post carefully prior you post your own. We need to draw constructive conclusions and find the solution. Binary package hint: gnome-panel, nm-applet, etc... SUMMARY: After graphical logon notification area gets scrambled. Icons are in terrible mess. Some of them are overlapping others. Sometimes network manager icon is missing. Sometimes phantom icons show up. They can be clones of any other icons in the notification area. Bug affects any graphics card: ATI, nVidia, Intel... WORKAROUND 1: Run 'killall gnome-panel' from the terminal or Gnome's "Run" dialog. The panels will automatically respawn correctly. WORKAROUND 2: When you get your icons distorted right-click on the affected panel (not icons) click "Properties". In "Panel Properties" change panel orientation to "Left" or "Right" and back to "Top" or "Bottom". In my case all icons are displayed properly, but one (nm-applet) is missing. WORKAROUND 3: Right click the Gnome panel and remove the offending applets and re- add them, i.e. Indicator Applet, etc. WORKAROUND 4: Right click the Gnome panel, click on Properties, Check Add Hide Buttons. and Close. Enough for now. If the error "runs" to lower panel, repeat the steps.
