[gutsy]gnome-panel hangs

[Khorne]

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

gnome-panel hangs and it's still visible but doesn't work. This is quite random action and I can't find what causes it. I also use compiz-fusion from Trevino repo.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It's probably caused because of the compiz package you use, does it hangs without it? also can you tell us if it hangs with the compiz package from the ubuntu repositories?

[Khorne (szczygiel-piotr)]

You're right it's probably because of compiz-fusion. Currently I've been
using CF "compiz 1:0.5.2-0ubuntu4" from "deb
http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb gutsy eyecandy" repository.
Even during writing this email it has also happened and this time also
hanged computer. I had to reset my laptop. (fortunately this email draft
has been written down)

I don't have compiz from Ubuntu repositories but I'll install it and
send you a feedback.

why do you use a non Ubuntu version rather than the gutsy one?

As I see non Ubuntu version has much more features like additional
included Window animations and enhanced Cube settings. Maybe I'm also
familiar with Beryl-like Settings Panel. I'm not against Ubuntu version
but for now is too miserable for me. If it will be improved in future
I'll change to it for sure.

This time I have disabled both CF from unofficial and official
repository and I occurred the same problem. I realized that it is
probably caused by mozilla-Thunderbird. It hasn't happened for the first
time. Sometimes when I'm receiving new emails thunderbird hangs. I can't
close it and then gnome-panel hangs. Sorry that I haven't wrote it
earlier but I haven't connected this two things.
