Description Tiffany Vickers 2003-04-11 05:21:30 UTC

Description of Problem:
Since I had a system crash due to a power problem,
my mouse went a little crazy and started opening
and moving things whenever it was touched. The
mouse problem was fixed after being rebooted, but
the gnome panel (which was moved to the left side,
vertically) now gives me multiple fatal errors.
When I hit "okay" numerous times (12, last count),
the panel disappears.

After a couple of tries, the gnome panel
disappeared completely (it didn't load at all upon
startup). I uninstalled and reinstalled
gnome-panel and the multiple fatal errors problem
reappeared. The panel is still on the left,
vertical. I saw some mention of vertical panels
causing problems and performed the fix suggested,
but nothing appeared to be wrong with the original
 values.

How often does this happen? Every time.

You're the latest victim of the infamous vertical panel crasher bug. 
See Havoc's comment in bug 94625 for where you can get fixed packages.
