Comment 9 for bug 772992

I am having exactly the same problem with Linux Mint 11 "Katya". Installing the quick-lounge-applet goes fine, but as soon as I try to add it to the gnome panel, gnome panel (2.32.1) disappears, a strange shadow shows up in its place, and it goes into an endless relaunch/crash cycle. Something about the latest Gnome Panel used in the Ubuntu Natty Gnome desktop (and, by extension, Mint Katya) seems to have broken compatibility with quick-lounge-applet.
