Comment:
I am also seeing this
problemhttp://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-48217.html as well.
Killing gnome-panel after logging out also doesn't seem to help for me
as well; however, rebooting causes GNOME to load fine again.

Also, the problem seems to be intermittent.  About half the time, I can
log out and back in OK, the other half the time, re-logging back in
results in the "I've detected a panel already running..." error message
and a non-functional GNOME session.
