Now that Dapper has been released, I replaced the logo icon again.
Again, it refused to show up on the panel for god knows what reason.
It stayed like this for a couple days, and go figure, this morning the
gnome foot magically appeared....
So it does work, it's just that now, you don't have control over "when"
the icon will be refreshed.... it will do it, eventually, after a few
days... when it feels like it.
It does make me feel out of control, and I hope this kind of behaviour
won't contaminate other parts of the GUI.... Ubuntu is supposed to be
easily re-brandable, not quite the case anymore with Dapper :-/
