Description:When using GDM, logging out of gnome 2.20.1 and then logging back in, with same user, I randomly get all my panel applets failing to start with a dialog asking me if I'd like to delete them. Saying no and logging in again, and again, may fix the problem. Reboot also seems to work. First login after boot always seems to be okay..


Additional info:
* package version(s) 2.20.1
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:Auto-login with GDM. Logout. Manually log back in to gnome.

Let me know what information would be helpful in tracking this down, as it's somewhat random but very repeatable. No packages from testing, other than that fully up-to-date system.
This task depends upon

what do you mean by "auto-login with GDM"?
when using manual login->logout->login I cannot reproduce it.

at the time, i had GDM set to auto-login my user. I dont think it mattered, the first time gnome loaded everything was fine, but if you log out and back in, or kill x, it would do this constantly on login..
is anyone else experiencing this? new gnome is due out soon, and im on kdemod now anyway..probably ok to close this if its not that big of an issue
