Kernel: 2.6.24-19-generic (32bit)
cpu: AMD64 4800
ram: 4G
gc: nVidia Quadro FX 1400
dual monitor setup: gxl, xinerama & twinview

Ok that just got weirder, I don't think it's a problem with the graphic card
redraw. I just did the following:

1. took my panel from the bottom of my first screen and dragged it to the
top of my second screen, the panel "froze"
2. I dragged it back to the bottom of my first screen, it was still frozen
3. I dragged the panel back to the top of my second screen BUT accidentally
dropped it on its left edge .. it started working back ..
4. I dragged it to the top .. and it's still working ..

I'll cross my fingers, but I have strong doubts that it will freeze back
soon enough..
