I get loss of panels from a fully updated ubuntu 10.10 in an old machine with lots of RAM, also in fact in Ubuntu 10.04 also.
The comment above by Alvils Berzins is very interesting indeed because my problem machine is PIII 650MHz, right in his proposed trouble range.
The Ubuntuforums thread re ubuntu 10.10 which includes the post
http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10084974&postcount=13
starts with an apparent X crash but then also reveals the same 'missing panels' situation which was seen in the same machine in ubuntu 10.04.

It is beginning to look as if I just cannot make use of Ubuntu for these old machines...
