Using the top command it became quite apparent the hang was being caused by the gnome-panel being in an (seemly) endless loop (which was consuming all the CPU). Working with a gnome maintainer, it was determined a possible cause of this problem was the fact I dragged a directory called Machines, at was in my ~/Desktop directory, to the top panel. (note: I have two panels configured, a top one and bottom one). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Move a drag a directory on to the panel 2. logout 3. login Actual Results: The gnome-panel would go into an (seemly) endless loop Additional info:
Hi Steve, I think me and jonathan fixed this a few days ago. Are you still experiencing the problem?
No but I have not tried... but I will... Just to be sure, What version of gnome-panel has the fix?
It was actually a bug in gnome-menus. gnome-menus-2.13.5-5
