hi, Yes, I got the same result. I patched my consolekit and nothing change. ------------------ Bear 2010-07-13 ------------------------------------------------------------- From:Kevin Oberman Send Date:2010-07-12 21:36:34 To:Joe Marcus Clarke CC:FreeBSD GNOME Users Subject:Re: SUMMARY: GNOME startup issues > Date: Sat, 10 Jul 2010 13:39:48 -0400 > From: Joe Marcus Clarke <marcus@freebsd.org> > Sender: owner-freebsd-gnome@freebsd.org > > Okay, I have been spending time trying to recreate the problems people > have been reporting with GNOME.

I see a delay in the panel start and attempting to add to a panel results in a panel freeze for exactly 25 seconds during which the panel is completely frozen, including the portion of the popup menu showing most of the selected "Add to Panel..." item. After exactly 25 seconds, the panel re-draws properly and the Add to Panel window appears. (The individual applets DO update, though.) There is no change in this from pre-patch system. I do see one change which may or may not be a result of the patch. My netspeed applet crashes immediately and attempting to re-add it results in "The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_NetspeedApplet"." Again, this may not be tied to the consolekit applet as it has been a bit unstable since I updated to 2.30, but it seems completely broken since the patch. -- R.
