Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gkrellm
I use gkrellm 2.3.1-7ubuntu1 as a panel in KDE 4:4.2.1a-0ubuntu1~intrepid3 in
Ubuntu 8.10 and it is located at the right border of the desktop. Usually it
works fine, but at certain events it bounces away from the border a bit to the
left. This means that all maximised windows suddenly use up all the CPU since
they all become larger (because the grkellm panel disappeared) and have to be
redrawn. I then have to move gkrellm back to its position at the right border
which again uses up all my CPU since the maximised windows now all become
smaller when introducing the panel again.
The bouncing of gkrellm is triggered when the content of it is changed, for
instance if a new network device has to be displayed. But interestingly it also
happens every hour when the clock suddenly shows something like "XX:00".
Please let me know if you need more information to fix the bug.
