Hi,
My panel at the bottom of the screen has vanished. First off the “shutdown” button in the computer menu vanished so I restarted and when I did that, the entire panel had vanished. I shut down and restarted again but it hasn’t helped. What next please?
Thanks
Ocky
Right click desktop, add panel
Then right click panel to add items
For a Gnome Panel that’s been deleted try this:
Start Gnome Terminal by pressing Alt+F2. Then enter the command: gnome-terminal. DEnter these comamands in the terminal:

I’m wondering whether you have a kernel bug – but out of my depth a bit, so can you help me a bit:
Can you copy/type here the error message more completely
Please run this command in a console: uname -r
and this command: cat /etc/SuSE-release
And copy back here the information that you get.
swardna,
This appears to be the same metacity bug that has bit just about everyone that runs gnome. There is a solution think malcolmlewis’ post points to it.
Thanks …
what if we dont use metacity, what is metacity to gnome…whats a metacity
If you use gnome you use metacity. Google for it.
I had the same problem after an online update and after several reboots, the panel finally reappeared. It took me about 5 or 6 attempts, but it finally came back.
