** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gnome-panel
  
  This bug can always be reproduced and happen in very precise
  circumstances. When using the "windows list" applet (installed by
  default) on a gnome panel of at least 30 pixels placed in the right of
  the screen, it's impossible to open more than 7 windows without freezing
  completely Gnome-panel and needed to restart Gnome. Since gnome-panel
  freeze but does not crash, I can't create a backtrace.
  
  This bug is due to the fact that when the gnome-panel is more than 30
  pixels, icons are shown for each windows in the panel. When Gnome has 7
  windows, icons are stretched and there's no place for another window. At
  that moment, if 8th window is open, the "windows list" panel panic and
  gnome-panel freeze.
  
  How to reproduce that bug :
  
  1. Right clic on the default ubuntu bottom panel and click on "properties"
  2. Change "Bottom" to "Right" and increase the size to 30 pixels or more ( 
icons must appear in the windows list in the gnome-panel when the panel is in 
the right of the screen )
  3. Once the panel is at right, open 8 windows.
  
  Result : Gnome panel is now completely freeze, except the notification
  area.
