Comment 8 for bug 256041

I have the same bug on Ubuntu 9.04.
I use dual head with two nvidia cards.
The panel won't even start. It starts and crashes, then restarts and so on.
I have to kill it with pkill.
Is there a way to restrict the panel to one specific screen, hiding the other from it, as a workaround until a fix will be released? Then i could use fbpanel on the second head.
