thanks for the confirmation. I think vertical panels are relatively common (compared to Xmonad usage :-)) and this bug is a severe problem for such users. Dear gnome-panel maintainers, please consider raising the severity of this bug before 2.30.2-2 migrates to testing. I took the liberty to merge this with the duplicate http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=598122 and linked to the upstream report https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=630642 Thanks, Joachim -- Joachim "nomeata" Breitner Debian Developer nome...@debian.org | ICQ# 74513189 | GPG-Keyid: 4743206C JID: nome...@joachim-breitner.de | http://people.debian.org/~nomeata
