Comment 50 for bug 53897

I am running Xubuntu 11.10.0 with Xfce 4.8 in a Medion MD41300.

My lower panel is not displaying, but when I right click places where the icons should be appearing, they start the programs as if they were there. I have notice also that some applications as Terminal Emulator are not appearing completely to me. They are cut in half, and even despairing almost completely, when I try to move them to the lower part of my screen. When I log out, I can see that the lower part of my screen is displaying a more colorfully picture than the upper part, which has become opaque.

I have found a solution to the problem just by changing the resolution of my screen display from 1024x768 (60Hz) and back again. This solution although doesn´t persist after loging off or restarting.

I hope someone can help me finding a solution to this very annoying problem. As you probably have noticed I have just arrived at Linux after long years using Windows, so please be very pedagogic in your explanations. ;-)
