[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#532709: xfce4-panel: Panel restarts several times on login

[Michael Biebl]

Package: xfce4-panel
Version: 4.6.1-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

when I login (from gdm), xfce4-panel restarts several times (4-5times).
This considerably slows down the login process.

My .xsession-errors file looks like this:


/etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup...
/usr/bin/startxfce4: X server already running on display :0
xrdb:  "Xft.hinting" on line 9 overrides entry on line 6
xrdb:  "Xft.hintstyle" on line 11 overrides entry on line 7

(xfce4-panel:8025): xfce4-panel-WARNING **: xfce4-panel is not running
xfdesktop[8026]: starting up

(xfce4-panel:8025): Gdk-WARNING **:

                     ^
		     That's German an means, that the panel has been
		     restarted.


Interestingly, I do not see this behavious on a freshly created account.

I tried to remove all Xfce related config/data files in ~/.config,
~/.share and ~/.cache, but I still have the same problem for my main
user account.

Cheers,
Michael
