On trying to add the Terminal Server Client Applet from the "add to panel" windows, the follow error encounters:

The panel encountered a problem while
loading "OAFIID:GNOME_TSClientAPPLET".

Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration

Same problem here: on Ubuntu 9.10 I cannot add the Terminal Server Client from the "add to panel". I get the same message.

I downloaded and installed the updated version of tsclient, and adding the applet worked great.

Indeed, it's fixed upstream: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=538035 && http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/t/tsclient/tsclient_0.150-3/changelog

Being fairly new to ubuntu bugs -- what's the process for getting a newer version of a package backported as an update? or will this have to wait for Lucid?

Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as Triaged and let them handle it from here. Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better! Please report any other issues you may find.

Thank you! I can confirmed it works perfectly again. Thanks for fixing it. Glad to be any help. I'm a developer too, so I know what a pain bug reports can be, without the proper information. Maybe if I find the time, I'll start looking into Gnome code one day

Any idea when this is going to be released to 9.10?
