known problem, however I can't find it, it seems to be some size
allocation problem, try dragging the panel to a different edge of the
screen and the applet will appear (it will mess up the next time you
start though)

another known problem, this is actually the problem with the clock
going blank ... the whole thing gets smaller but the socket doesn't
actually do it right ...

to owen:
can you take a look at the socket stuff? ... I think the resizing is the
culprit on both of these bugs
