Click on a launcher in one of the panels 2. 3. Actual results: App launches as expected, but gnome-panel crashes Expected results: App launches as expected, gnome-panel doesn't crash Additional info: Terminal session follows: ~$ gnome-panel Gdk-ERROR **: The program 'gnome-panel' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 10576 error_code 9 request_code 62 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) aborting...
Problem occurs with compiz and mutter. Problem only occurs with metacity if the gconf key "apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager" is set. FWIW, lxpanel (the LXDE panel) does not exhibit this problem with any of the above window managers.
