[Bug 642877] Re: Gnome-panel doesn't start upon login

 

The same thing is happening to me.  It started happening on upgrade to
Natty. Before that everything was working just fine.  Is there any
traction on this issue?

Title:
  Gnome-panel doesn't start upon login

Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-panel

  Was working fine in 10.04 but then I did an "update-manager -d" to
  look at the beta release and gnome-panel did not load. The desktop was
  there but the application menu and the open windows bar at the bottom
  were not there. I tried running more updates and then finally figured
  out it was gnome-panel.  When run from the terminal it loads fine with
  these warnings:

   ** Message: Could not connect to session manager: Could not get owner
  of name 'org.gnome.SessionManager': no such name

  ** (gnome-panel:2346): WARNING **: Could not connect to session
  manager: Could not get owner of name 'org.gnome.SessionManager': no
  such name

  Let me know what I can do to help.
