MATE panel multiple errors and crashes in 24.10

Support & Help Requests
1

Hello! First of all, glad to be here in the community!

Since upgrading to 24.10, everytime I boot Ubuntu MATE, I see multiple errors of parts of the panel that couldn't be started because of an error. I see always a few windows that says:

Network Monitor/Notification Area/Workspace Switcher/Window List/Show Desktop has ended unexpectedly

If you reload an applet from the panel, it will automatically be added back to the panel.

Options: Delete. Do not reload. Reload

I'd try reloading the applets but it won't work.

I know that 24.10 is a very buggy distro and it's still in the works but I would like to know if there is a fix/workaround to this issue as I don't have any type of taskbar due to this.

Thanks in advance!

Try to start mate from an xferm. So that you see the error messages. Or start only mate-panel inside icewm or openbox. Just to see if any error is really noticeable

The issue was fixed after getting a mate-panel package update. Now it works as it should!
