OK, this is my last try to replay to this bug... :/ the behavior of the groups is not understandable for me.

In my case, the panel crashes with error message (xfce4-menu-plugin:10967): Gdk-WARNING **: GdkWindow 0x4000003 unexpectedly destroyed The program 'xfce4-menu-plugin' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 154 error_code 3 request_code 18 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) . After some timespending dumpstering i found an launcher entry with: [Entry 0] Name=ScummVM Exec=/usr/games/scummvm Terminal=false StartupNotify=false Comment=Interpreter for several adventure games Icon=scummvm.svg after commenting (#) the icon line it works. >> All this happened as a result of a daily dist-upgrade on Friday night >> (22 Aug) AEST. > > Could you show use what got upgraded? > The packages are: libxml2_2.6.32.dfsg-2+lenny1_i386.deb python2.5_2.5.2-6+lenny1_i386.deb libxml2-dev_2.6.32.dfsg-2+lenny1_i386.deb python2.5-minimal_2.5.2-6+lenny1_i386.deb libxml2-utils_2.6.32.dfsg-2+lenny1_i386.deb python-libxml2_2.6.32.dfsg-2+lenny1_i386.deb openvpn_2.1~rc9-3_i386.deb I hope it helps.
