Comment 177 for bug 439448

A member of ubuntu-fr community have another problem with this bug.

He uses compiz "normal effect" and default theme "Ambiance" on laptop too.

He tried to test with metacity.

When he turns off compiz, no difference. When he reactivates compiz, the two panels disapear both.

There's a link between compiz and panels for this bug?

For my laptop, i've no problem with metacity since this morning and after 42 reboots test. With compiz, 2 reboots and... bug with de laptop on battery.

On my desktop, without changes of the appearences of applets icons and without resizing area aplets, I have no bug at all with compiz. If i change appearence of network applet by switch off my router (for example, icon becomes wifi!), no problems at reboot. On my laptop, bug...

There's also a link between this bug and laptop mode (energy saver, battery icon applet, etc.) ?

I think it's significant!
