From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030401 Description of problem: After a login, the rhn_applet appear strangelly (no icon but just the drag button). At this stade, the applet was warking fine exept for the icon (i can see mesage when moving the mouse just 1 pixel right after the drag button). I killed the applet and try to relaunch it, and now, it does not show in the taskbar. I tried to logout and relogin so that the rhn_applet is relaunched automatically, but it does not change anything. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhn-applet-2.0.9-0.9.0.1 How reproducible: Didn't try Additional info:

Created attachment 91796 [details] lsof lsof of my rhn-applet-gui
Rebooting the machine did not help.
I'v removed my .gnome2 .gconfd .gconf .rhn* and all stuff like that to get a new desktop... After that i was able to reconfigure rhn-applet-gui, and it seems to work (but lost a lot of configuration)... So to me it seems to be a configuration corruption or something like that. Forget to say that i was using gnome desktop and that my redhat is an upgraded redhat 7.3->8.0->9
I've seen this same problem on multiple systems (all current-patch-level RH 9). Some systems are working fine, others aren't, and I haven't been able to find the correlation yet. /Harry Sutton Hewlett-Packard Company
Seems to work with current releases of the applet, so closing WORKSFORME.
