Same bug here with Acer aspire one 110l with jaunty 9.04 final release fully updated (but same issues with the last beta).
After the first (fresh) installation everything works fine.
But if desktop-switcher is used, at the pc reboot the panel in the netbook interface doesn't appear and windows are without any decoration.
Switching more and more times from netbook to classic interface things can change randomly: netbook interface could work fine, but classic desktop could lose both two panels, without anything on the desktop, apart the background image (Why CTRL + ALT + DEL doesn't work?). And sometimes (in the beta version) emerald doesn't work.
If you reboot pc when it is in classic desktop interface, at restart the desktop will be empty as often as not.
Switching from netbook to classic interface sometimes appears this error:

In the netbook interface you couldn't write in a text box (e.g. google search field in firefox, or in the command box field in the short-cuts keyboard preferences) if mouse arrow isn't stopped over the window (undecorated) in which there is the blinking cursor. I don't know if this is due to the bug we discuss here.

My trials to solve it in the beta version: I searched the word "netbook" and removed from synaptic every program that results installed.
I unchecked from the startup programs list "maximus", "UME Desktop Launcher", "UNR Launcher" and reboot.
Nothing helped.

How can I obtain the classic gnome desktop, until you fix the bug?

Hope this can help. Regards.
