Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

After installing Ubuntu (Latest), I logged in. Gnome-panel started and dis-appeared in few seconds. It started blinking before disappearing.

Here is the error message:

But, after performing an upgrade (apt-get dist-upgrade), gnome-panel is starting up properly.

I just wanted to report the behaviour after performing a fresh install.

Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty downloaded from the link http://ftp.yz.yamagata-u.ac.jp/pub/linux/ubuntu/releases/feisty/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso

I just did an upgrade as apt-get dist-upgrade.

Even when I try to run gedit from the terminal, I'm getting the following warnings/errors in the terminal - But it doesnt quit now

I think it was a general Ubuntu Bug. After fresh installation, some apps crashed. Gnome-panel was more visibile, so I reported as a gnome-panel bug. Sorry for that.
