Comment 1 Steve Falco 2002-10-06 00:30:41 UTC

I deleted the following directories, and then I could log in:

.gconf/   .gnome2_private/   .rhn-applet.cache
.gconfd/  .gnome-desktop/    .rhn-applet.conf
evolution/      .gnome/   .gtkrc-1.2-gnome2
.fonts.cache-1  .gnome2/  .metacity/

It seems the problem is triggered by creating a new corner panel in
the upper right corner of the screen - panel is vertical.  Once I do
that, the next time I log in I get the crash.  I can try to get more
information if you can tell me what might help isolate the problem
further.
