Bug Description

Upon startup some gnome-panel applets don't quite load all the way. If I context click where the applet should be, I get the context click of the applet next to it (or nothing at all). If I send a killall command to applet and start it manually again, everything goes back to normal.

Please see attached picture.

Also, I've experienced the same thing with my indicator-applet-session. It's very frequent on the network manager applet, though.

Okay, using a fresh install of Lucid. I have found on two different machines that sometimes any applet of some sort will not load completely. It may be the "minimize all windows" applet, the "indicator-session", "indicator-applet", or the "system" menu.

This isn't a graphical glitch as I cannot use the menus that are corrupted. For instance, if half of "System" is missing, then I can use "applications" and "places", but I cannot access "system".

Changing to gnome-panel, though I have no idea what really is causing this.

I do not believe compiz is a problem, either. See the attached picture.
