[Bug 576259] Re: gnome-session often doesn't start properly in 10.04

 

I still have the problem nowadays, so no update that have been released
since did provide a fix.

I have observed a few things though, it seems the the problem is not gnome-panel itself but the clock-applet.
Sometimes the gnome-panel starts but I have a white rectangle at the place the clock-applet should be.
When this happens, when I quit and login again into Xorg, I have the behavior described in this bug report which is no gnome-panel at all, like it is stalled by something. This something would be the clock-applet of course.

When I look in the process tree with pstree I can see TWO clock-applet
processes.

My guess is the following :

The clock-applet sometimes doesn't start correctly, crashes, and stalls
the gnome-panel. If you try to restart your Xorg it makes things even
worse making another clock-applet process.
