This should be fixed in GARNOME 2.9.90, please re-open it if it still persists.
Comment 2 Gabriel de Perthuis 2005-05-08 03:26:48 UTC 
I've just had this issue (working on the panel), here is the explanation for the
curious/desperate:
The error code is Bonobo_ACTIVATION_REG_NOT_LISTED, which in fact meant that the
.server file for IID GNOME_PanelShell didn't exist. Having a correct
/usr/lib/bonobo/servers/GNOME_Panel.server solves it.
Comment 3 Niels van Mourik 2005-05-08 08:26:14 UTC 
But does anybody know how to fix this? I'm using Debian, and Gnome 2.9 did not
yet appear in there channels. And I don't have the time and disk-space to start
building Garnome. And I don't have good experiences with Garnome, the last time
gnome-panel exited on start deu some problem with the same Bonobo Activation Server.

ps. Gabriel, what content should this GNOME_Panel.server file have?

So does anybody know a simple explanation for my problem?
