I've noticed this bug when using Ubuntu 11.04 (amd64) with classic GNOME desktop on two machines. One machine has nVidia GTS graphics card (with proprietary drivers installed, still running 11.04), the other has Intel GMA graphics chip (but now it's upgraded to 11.10).
>From time to time some random parts (don't matter if middle, edge or center, >even the main menu part became affected) of top and bottom panels >spontaneously became "transparent", so the desktop background became visible >through these "holes". The affected part "heals itself" by forcing it to redraw (covering it with other graphic object, switching to the other virtual terminal and returning back etc.). Fortunately, I haven't noticed this strange bug in 11.10. -- 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/796346 Title: part of desktop background image on top of gnome-panel Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-panel A part of desktop background image is shown on top of gnome-panel. It disappears either by clicking on the ubuntu menu item or by hovering (mouse-over) over it. I'm not 100% sure this is a gnome-panel bug. This problem occurs at random times per day. I noticed it after upgrading to ubuntu 11.04. I use ubuntu classic with theme ambiance if it matters.
