[Bug 46150] Re: Panel hangs on login
I have the same problem in 6.06. Some applet icons are loaded then the panels(top and bottom) both hang. Sometimes it takes many restarts to get past the hangup -- Panel hangs on login https://launchpad.net/bugs/46150 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 46150] Re: Panel hangs on login
For some reason the re-install routine described above only worked for a few days then started hanging again. I noticed that it only hangs with one particular user, and not another, so there may be a conflict app on the panel that is causing the trouble. Will investigate further. Glenn: rather than restarting, you should kill the deskbar process. Ctrl-Alt-F1 will bring up a console, log in then enter command: ps -A | grep deskbar ... this will show you the process ID (a number), then enter command: kill process ID ... then Ctrl-Alt-F7 to get back to Gnome desktop -- Panel hangs on login https://launchpad.net/bugs/46150 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

removing deskbar-applet seems to have resolved the problem which is a pity as it is a very handy function. -- Panel hangs on login https://launchpad.net/bugs/46150 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I have the same problem on my laptop running latest Dapper. I deleted deskbar from the panel and now can login no problems, but I would like to get deskbar working. I cleared the deskbar history, this didn't fix it. -- Panel hangs on login https://launchpad.net/bugs/46150 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 46150] Re: Panel hangs on login
Okay, I ran Synaptic, completely removed the package deskbar-applet (this also removed ubuntu-desktop). Then I logged out, reinstalled both packages from a text console, logged back in to Gnome, added Deskbar to the panel, and everything works fine now. I've logged out/in/restarted a few times to confirm that it no longer hangs. It is good to have it working, but now I will never be able to find out what caused the app to hang in the first place. :( -- Panel hangs on login https://launchpad.net/bugs/46150 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Does nautilus work on the desktop when that happens?

[Bug 46150] Re: Panel hangs on login
Thanks for your bug. What version of Ubuntu do you use? Does moving icons on the desktop or opening the context menu works when that happens? Do you have anything useful to .xsession-errors about that? ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs Status: Unconfirmed = Needs Info -- Panel hangs on login https://launchpad.net/bugs/46150 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
