I have been facing it in Ubuntu 8.04 since a couple of weeks. This happens every time I bootup in the morning that when I login, the panel appears but the panel applets/contents do not load following it. Instead various apps which open up when I login such as Tomboy Search Window, Liferea, BasKet etc. open up their windows while the panel applets like Notification Area, Clock, Desktop Switcher, Trash, Menus etc. are yet to load. It takes some 4-5 minutes for the panel applets to get loaded.
This doesn't happen the next time I logout and login back. But then, most times I also miss some apps to get started which have been marked to startup on Login such as Tomboy, BasKet, Liferea, etc. Am afraid something happens in the sequence of things getting loaded when a Login happens, as the panel always gets loaded correctly. It's the panel applets which either do not appear or certain apps getting missed from being started. I had a screenshot of the same which I unfortunately deleted this morning. Will add the screenshot and ~/.xsession-errors when I bootup tomorrow. @nitindb, Please wait for sometime to let the panel contents to load, it usually happens for me if I wait for some 4 minutes. -- Panel items occasionally do not display after log-in. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257506 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
