Hmm, this is strange, should not happen, but Gnome 2.0 is a rather old
version and was the first which used gtk-2, so there are probably some
bugs.

Well, I understand this isn't very nice. If your panel just disappear,
it's likley that 'gnome-panel' died (for some reason) normally it should
be restarted through 'gnome-session', bit if there's a bug ...
You may look if 'gnome-panel' is running, the next time your panels
disappear and (re)start it.

Good Luck!!!
