Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
I have an old white box (server) which I installed with 10.04 LTS. At login, the panels come up rather borked. You can see a screen shot (and get more information) at this forum post:

I can sort of fix them by changing themes (from any to any), but regardless of which theme is in place at logout/reboot the problem returns at login.
This effects all user accounts (so I can probably create user accounts ad naseum to assist in troubleshooting).
Running this fixes until reboot:
gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel
rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/panel
pkill gnome-panel
While running this fixes indefinitely:
pkill gnome-panel
All of these workarounds function on a per user basis.
Let me know if I can provide more data.

Looks like the pkill gnome-panel by itself only fixed the problem indefinitely for the build account. The subsequent user account which I created breaks with every reboot (or logout/login). I tested making the other user account a priv'd account, but this made no difference.
