Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
I just upgraded my Ubuntu 8.10 installation to 9.04 beta. I got a
warning that a driver (flgrx) for my graphics card (ATI Radeon X300 SE
128mb Hypermemory) is not supported anymore in 9.04 beta. I continued
because I read that there is a new proprietary driver available for ATI
cards. However, as soon as I logged in for the first time the gnome
panels which normally 'slide-in' from above and below the screen keep
doing that and back. They slide in, then dissapear, seem to slide up
(because of the graphics hickup I can't see this properly but either
they slide up again or they dissapear), slide in again, repeat. CPU
usage goes up and I can't load anything from the panels. I can CLICK on
them in the second they are visible but things like Firefox do not
start. Only programs like nautilus that I start in another way stay
visible and usable. However the 'Run application' box you get when
hitting CTRL+F2 dissapears within a second as well.
Using a Failsafe GNOME session doesn't solve it.
