Comment 2 Ray Strode [halfline] 2008-12-16 15:51:09 UTC 
The panel hasn't been updated in some time, so it's not likely a panel problem.  Can you (when this happens), do

1) install the debuginfo packages for the panel
2) gdb attach $(/sbin/pidof gnome-panel)
3) t a a bt full

and attach the output?
