Public bug reported:
I am not fully sure if it is the gnome-panel or metacity who is causing
the problem or something else and I haven't bothered to try to reproduce
it in a clean environment. Anyway, way I produced the problem multiple
times goes like this:
1) configure a dual monitor display with one workspace spanning the two screens
(ATI proprietary drivers)
2) place a gnome panel at the bottom of each screen
3) fumble with the graphics drivers so that the computer will start in single
screen mode (can happen by going back to the Open Source drivers or upgrading
the proprietary ones)
4) the now single-screen desktop will not fully boot up, but instead get stuck
on the gnome-panel, both panels seem to flicker at the bottom and gnome doesn't
seem to be able to handle two panels at the bottom
Some further information:
Primary Screen (right): 1680x1050
Secondary Screen (left): 1280x1024
Ubuntu 11.04
gnome-panel 1:2.32.1-0ubuntu6.5
metacity 1:2.30.3-0ubuntu8
