Comment 1 for bug 515139

Example tests:

login:
only the System Load applet is running.

logout, login again:
entire top panel is totally dead. Clicking on it (LMB, RMB, drag&drop of items) does nothing
bottom panel: the Trash icon is working, other then that all is dead. Even desktop switcher is missing
Trying to move the Trash icon (LMB -> click) gives me hand cursor but the icon does not move, nor can I cancel the move (ESC or clicking) so the entire desktop is stucked.

logout, login again: identical result as previous

logout was done by killall -u username from root in VT1

logout, login again: now all works 100% correctly about the panels
