Bug#492017: pypanel: confict with gnome-settings-daemon
Kevin Mitchell
Version: 2.4-1.1+b1
Severity: normal
gnome-settings-daemon (2.22.2.1-1) is running and set to display a solid
colour background. pypanel is started from the console. The message
"Failed to create background image in ppshade!" is displayed. Pypanel
start and kind of runs, but it appears that the transparency feature
goes haywire such that the entire panel is essentially an illegible mess of
overlapping text with a transparent background.
Note that my ~/.pypanelrc file specifies a fully opaque panel (SHADE = 255) with a solid background colour, but it appears that this gets short circuited somehow
Pypanel behaves as expected if gnome-settings-deamon is not running or if gnome-settings-daemon is set to display an image as the background.
