[KLUG Members] Gnome panel vanished after seg fault

[Jim Pharis]

As far as I know the panel information is all in configuration files 
located in your users .gnome dir. 

Unless you have a specially tweaked desktop you can just delete the 
/home/user/.gnome and it will give you a clean slate, including the panel, 
the next time you log on. If you do it that way I would suggest 
backing up the dir and then rm -r ~/.gnome

You could also grab some fresh ~/.gnome/panel* files from user who's 
panel isn't messed up and try replacing the possibly corrupted files.

Hope that gives you some ideas on where to go from here.

Good Luck
