Comment 30 for bug 449910

There are two separate bugs here.

The multi-monitor bug originally reported by LCID Fire, is present all the time when in effect. The icons do not paint but are usable. Moving the gnome panel to the left of the "magic line" will make the icons start painting again.

The reports of intermittently disappearing icons on single-monitor setups are a different bug.

I have have reverted to a single monitor setup out of frustration. This has resolved all gnome panel issues. If I get the time I will try changing to a dual monitor setup and testing under Lucid.
