You might try opening a terminal (right-click on desktop -> open
terminal) and running gnome-panel. If you have not rebooted completely
since the upgrade, there may be some processes that haven't died
(happens sometimes w/ bonobo especially). What I usually do is go to
another tty (Ctrl + Alt + F1) and login as root and run:
ps aux | grep MY_USERNAME | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill -9
In english, this is: List all processes with username | show lines
containing MY_USERNAME | print only the second column (the process ID) |
pass all the PIDs as parameters to kill -9
Hope that helps.
