Accepting that my bug duplicates this one, then it's not specific to the video driver (mine is an Nvidia GEForce MX 4000). Removing compiz as Davide suggests fixed it for me also. I'd suspect a race condition involving compiz and gnome-panel, and perhaps all these other variables are just things that affect the timing. -- Panel utilities not shown on startup using Matrox gfx https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572550 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Davide's solution worked for me also. I've not bothered to re-install Compiz. lspci reports a Matrox Graphics, Inc.

[Bug 572550] Re: Panel utilities not shown on startup using Matrox gfx
the bug wouldn't be specific to a video driver if it was in gnome- panel's code, gnome-panel might do something which trigger the video driver bug but it doesn't mean it should stop doing that just because a video driver is buggy there -- Panel utilities not shown on startup using Matrox gfx https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572550 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 572550] Re: Panel utilities not shown on startup using Matrox gfx
Sebastien, what makes you think that the bug is not related to gnome- panel? Given the fact that gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/panel ; pkill gnome-panel fixes it, makes me believe that the bug is triggered by some panel settings and therefore by the behavior of the panel. -- Panel utilities not shown on startup using Matrox gfx https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572550 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Cool. Worked for me too! Many thanks...out of interest, is there any real need to reinstall Compiz?

[Bug 572550] Re: Panel utilities not shown on startup using Matrox gfx
same issue for me, the only stable solution that I've found to get working panels through different login was to remove compiz. So, I run sudo aptitude remove compiz compiz-core After that, panel works fine. Furthermore, if you want to really use compiz on this hardware you can reinstall it and from now on everything it's ok. PS: I've not run a dpkg-reconfigure on compiz packages, possibly it should be enough. -- Panel utilities not shown on startup using Matrox gfx https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572550 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Complete removal of the compiz packages via synaptic package manager SOLVED it for me too - thanks Davide. I tried reinstallation first, and that didn't fix it.

I used Synaptic Package Manager to completely remove compiz and compiz-core, logged out, logged back in, then reinstalled compiz and compiz-core (again with Synaptic) and it seems to be fine now. It didn't work unless I logged out between removing and reinstalling.

[Bug 572550] Re: Panel utilities not shown on startup using Matrox gfx
As some additional information, there appears to be a per-user component to this. The steps I followed above only fixed my user account; my guest account was still broken. I had to remove it again, log in as my guest user, log back in as myself, then reinstall to fix both. It's acting like some user configuration file has to get built while compiz is not installed in order for the panels to function properly, though I don't know if that's actually the case. -- Panel utilities not shown on startup using Matrox gfx https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572550 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

similar issues for me lspci: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc.

Only tmp solution i found was to go into Preferences Monitors; switch to 800 x 600, corrects issue, then back to 1024x768... Any ideas?

I've been holding off making a me-too! claim, but this might be useful: lspci reports: 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G400/G450 (rev 82) I replaced this card with an ATI dual head to see if it would work any better than the Matrox (which doesn't dual properly). It kind of worked, but the res was wrong and the brightness was burned out so I created a xorg.conf No progress, so I swapped the cards back and now the Matrox works as well as it did in 9.10 - no panel problems. The xorg.conf is no longer active (I changed the name), so something must be cached somewhere. -- Panel utilities not shown on startup using Matrox gfx https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572550 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I was directed to here from bug #581046. I'd like to mention that with my g400/450 gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/panel ; pkill gnome-panel gives me a working panel.
