Description freggy1 2009-04-22 10:15:34 UTC 
Since a recent update to GNOME 2.26.1, it happened several times already that the gnome panels do not load completely and hang immediately after I log in.

The panel does not completely slide out of the image borders, only a few of the applets on the panel are shown, and the panel is completely
hanging: clicking on the Applications menu does not have any result. The only
solution is to switch to a vt and restart the display manager. On a second login, everything works fine.

gdb backtrace of gnome-panel process:
0x00007fee0c120b4f in __poll (fds=0xec3100, nfds=14, timeout=-1)
    at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/poll.c:83
83        return INLINE_SYSCALL (poll, 3, CHECK_N (fds, nfds), nfds, timeout);

bugzilla.gnome.org is being replaced by gitlab.gnome.org. We are closing all old bug reports in Bugzilla which have not seen updates for many years.

If you can still reproduce this issue in a currently supported version of GNOME (currently that would be 3.38), then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-panel/-/issues/

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
