Splash Screen and Panel Problems in Xubuntu 11.10

Hey gyus, i'm new in this forum and i hope to have nice moments! First of all my english is not very good(you will see), i'm so sorry about it. I will try to explain my problem. I don't have a splash screen on boot, in the begining when i installed fresh xubuntu there was, now it...dissapear. And on start up, PANEL 1(it's only one) is missing, i must reboot one more time to fix it. That is about last day, i don't installed any software and updates before that one bug. I'm using XFCE 4.8 with compiz+emerald. I hope you understand and help me.

Re: Splash Screen and Panel Problems in Xubuntu 11.10

Is there a splash theme selected in the "session and startup" settings?

For the panel, take a look in the ~/.xsession-errors, that might give some clues, but there is a known problem that the panel can corrupts its configuration in logout. That's been fixed in the upcoming 4.10 release, but the changes are too big to backport to 4.8.
