[ILUG] Panel crashing.

[John Mc Donald]

Hi,

I have the installed GNOME on my system (well it installed with RH6.0)
but I am having some problems with it. When I run X as a "standard" user

everything works fine but when I run it as root the panel keeps crashing

(and sometimes restarting).

When it doesn't restart automatically I have to restart it from the
terminal and
get the following error messages when it crashes the next time:
===================
 ignore_x_error called

Gdk-ERROR **: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
  serial 148596 error_code 3 request_code 15 minor_code 0

aborting...

Gdk-WARNING **: GdkWindow 0x240006d unexpectedly destroyed

Gdk-ERROR **: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)

==================

Has anyone seen this type of behaviour before, and more importantly does

anyone know a fix for it?

Thanks,
John.
