Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
When I try to start any application from the gnome-panel on my secondary x-screen (I have a laptop with an external monitor), gnome-panel crashes (using 100% cpu) and I get a blank "error" screen, which I cannot close. Running software from the menu works fine.
I have configured the "seperate x-screen" setup using nvidia-settings, the rest of the xorg will be the "factory defaults", I installed this laptop freshly yesterday with Ubuntu 8.10.
My gnome-panel version is 1:2.24.1-0ubuntu2
