netbook-launcher disappears from the desktop

[Haggai Eran]

Hi,

I'm trying netbook remix on lucid, and I encountered a weird situation. Sometime after login, I opened a terminal, and afterwards the launcher disappears from the desktop. Here is what I see in .xsession-errors:
** (netbook-launcher:2485): DEBUG: Signal caught: 15
** (netbook-launcher:2485): DEBUG: Quitting nicely

> (gnome-terminal:3490): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_accel_map_unlock_path: assertion `entry != NULL && entry->lock_count > 0' failed

> Window manager warning: meta_window_activate called by a pager with a 0 timestamp; the pager needs to be fixed.

I'm not sure exactly how to reproduce this though.

Thanks for reporting this bug and help to make ubuntu better.
There is not enough information for debugging nicely this issue, do you have apport telling you that the application as crashed when it's the case? Can you try to report more info by this mean?

Normally, it should respawn as well.

The application didn't crash. It only stopped displaying itself. When I tried to kill it it respawned, but it still didn't display its gui in the background. Only by using this command from the terminal I was able to get it displayed again:
> killall netbook-launcher ; netbook-launcher

Hum, that's really strange. I can't reproduce it there.

Well, I will update the clutter stack this week, maybe it worth a look if you still have the issue then.

I haven't encountered this again with updated netbook-launcher, so I guess it was fixed.
