Title:
  Ubuntu 9.04: gnome panels keep going up and down, unusable

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

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-panel

  I just upgraded my Ubuntu 8.10 installation to 9.04 beta. I got a
  warning that a driver (flgrx) for my graphics card (ATI Radeon X300 SE
  128mb Hypermemory) is not supported anymore in 9.04 beta. I continued
  because I read that there is a new proprietary driver available for
  ATI cards. However, as soon as I logged in for the first time the
  gnome panels which normally 'slide-in' from above and below the screen
  keep doing that and back. They slide in, then dissapear, seem to slide
  up (because of the graphics hickup I can't see this properly but
  either they slide up again or they dissapear), slide in again, repeat.
  CPU usage goes up and I can't load anything from the panels. I can
  CLICK on them in the second they are visible but things like Firefox
  do not start. Only programs like nautilus that I start in another way
  stay visible and usable. However the 'Run application' box you get
  when hitting CTRL+F2 dissapears within a second as well.

  Using a Failsafe GNOME session doesn't solve it.
