Hi, i have experienced this problem since RH 7.3 i hoped that it would have been fixed by now. I submitted a bugazilla report to both gnome and redhat, both went by unnoticed. The problem is that when i boot up, the message below appears and all the applets on the panel disappear. The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_ClockApplet" Details: Unknown CORBA exception id: 'IDL:omg.org/CORBA/INV_OBJREF:1.0' Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration? Anyone have any idea what is wrong? thanks
