I have a theory about this, though nothing more than intuition to back it up at the moment. I've always gotten this problem when running the desktop build in Xephyr. I had not seen it in QEMU, though some others have commented that it does occur. Until today, I'd not seen it happen on the actual hardware. It happened once today. I tried ssh'ing into the phone, killed the X session (and the dbus deamon it launches) and restarted X using /etc/init.d/xserver-nodm start And the icons showed up. So it wasn't a bad image (as I'd always kind of thought). It sounds to me like there's a race condition somewhere. On the desktop, the icons always lost the race, but on the emulator and hardware they usually win. That may also be the case with the Keyboard button at the top of the screen... It's usually there, but sometimes it's missing. Now, it may be that this only happens on 2007.1 and that 2007.2 will simply leave this issue behind... or it may be something that needs to be addressed. - John
