Interestingly I had to kill it twice. After running pkill at first the panel disappeared for a second then it auto-started (WOW!). I ran the command again and the panel was gone. Then I started the panel by gnome-panel command and it loaded but I got this:

~$ pkill gnome-panel
~$ pkill gnome-panel
~$ gnome-panel

(gnome-panel:2777): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.32.4/./gobject/gsignal.c:2459: signal `size_request' is invalid for instance `0x22847e0'

I got different message when I was running that command after start-up (see my post below). The symbol "|" is for the cursor. I have to mention that when the panel was loading (both times) it appeared on the top of the screen for a moment then on the bottom (normal position).
