Comment 3 for bug 24243

I never experienced this before, and I have used Hoary for 6 months and have
upgraded to Breezy the day it was released.

I can't say for sure, but I think it was already collapsed right after booting.
I did not play around at all with the panel.

In the meantime, I had to reboot. The panel is now showing as usual, so the
(persistant) configuration of the panel seems to be okay.
