The program 'gnome-panel' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
  (Details: serial 7613 error_code 8 request_code 1 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

how do you trigger the bug exactly?

[Vitaliy Kulikov (slonua)]

just during logon (ex: full reboot)

[Pedro Villavicencio (pedro)]

Thanks for the report Vitaliy Kulikov , It has been a long time without any comment or a duplicate in this bug report and It is possible that the bug has been fixed. May you please try to reproduce it with the latest Stable Release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal and add the respective comments to the report? You can learn how to get that release at http://www.ubuntu.com/download . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.

[Vitaliy Kulikov (slonua)]

You can close this bug. Confirm that I can not reproduce this issue with lates update on Natty =).
