I have this problem too!!! And nothing here seems to fix it (I'm using xubuntu dapper).
In my case what happened was that X.org froze up and I shut down the computer via ssh (sudo halt). Then after rebooting no more panels, all I can do is right click on the desktop an use the applications menu.
What causes this? I mean there must be a bad state file somewhere or something like that because even if I run xfce4-panel it isn't the same panel I used to have.
Can someone please help me get my panels back?

For Xubuntu just check GNOME - worked for me

Panel's were lost after clicking on sub-pixel hinting and restarting. (Xubuntu 6.06.1)
If you have a CRT display - don't bother exploring this check box.

I just tried that on GNOME and it opened an xfce panel, which may have just fixed my problem.
I'm running the same as whitecollar.

EDIT- well... it runs the panels in xfce fine, but only so long as I'm running ti through the terminal. How do I make it so that it always runs?

I'm using Xfce 4.3.90.2 on Xubuntu 6.06.1. No error messages popped up when I ran the suggested command.

What version are you guys using and any messages when you run

xfce4-panel

inside a terminal?

Somehow I've been having this problem too, though I can still access the Xfce menu with a right mouse click.

Anyone know how either of us can get the panels back, though?

:oops: Some how I managed to remove the panels. All of them, and I can't work out how to get them back. Can you help this poor, panelless noob?
