The bug is known: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=75138 Always do a quick search on bugzilla when possible (though you may find that hard without a panel to launch apps :-) >From the bugz web page: Someone suggested mentioning how to recover from this: Go to a virtual console (Ctrl+Alt+F1) or ssh in to the machine, move ~/.gconf/apps/panel to ~/.old-panel-config or something, and then reconfigure the panel (not putting the tray applet on the vertical panel) Note that, even though the panel is dead, you can always get to a shell in gnome by right-clicking on the desktop background and launching a gnome-terminal from the menu. cheers, denice -- denice.deatrich @ epfl.ch, DSC / LTHC-LTHI, E.P.F.L.
