Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
If I launch an icon by double-clicking on it and then move the mouse before the app launches then the panel hosting the icon I clicked will move to the side where the mouse moved. To get the panel back to its original position I need to go into the panel's properties and change the orientation back to top.
How to repeat:
In the default Gnome desktop, double-click on the Firefox icon and then quickly move the mouse to the right side before Firefox launches. For me, I can get this to recur at least 20% of the time, or even more frequent if there is a load on the computer such as launching some other app (e.g., OpenOffice) and then double-clicking on the Firefox icon, followed by moving the mouse away.
I got this same behavior on both my Feisty Desktop i386 installation as well as on a Feisty Desktop AMD64 LiveCD.
