Just upgraded from Feisty to Gutsy and now I have this unfortuntate problem too. I use the bottom panel as a kind of launcher dock. I make it 50 px tall and all I have in it are the launchers for seven progs that I use a lot. I keep it on the bottom and I have "expand" unchecked, so it's centered.
When I log out and log in it's up on top of the screen, just under the "real" top panel. I can't switch it back to "bottom". If I go into properties and try to click "bottom", my selection just stays as "top".
So I expand it - and then it lets me move it down to the bottom.
Now I've got it on the bottom but there's space where some icons used to be - Firefox, Thunderbird, Gedit, usually.
So I make a new launcher for firefox, for example, and drag it onto the panel - and TWO firefox icons appear. Because the first one didn't really go away, you just couldn't see it after the wonky top-and-bottom behavior happened.
I'm on a Panasonic toughbook W4 with 1 Gig Ram.
This is a bummer because I'm really enjoying gutsy otherwise. :(
