The funny thing is that I had the exact opposite behavior after
installing the ATI drivers until the gnome-panel update yesterday. When
I would bring up X, the panels would cover about three-fourths their
typical length of the width of the screen and be blank. Nothing seemed
to coax them back to life although they still would auto-hide. I ended
up figuring out that killing gnome-panel so it would restart solved the
problem. I was about to investigate further when the update to
gnome-panel made the problem go away.
Cheers,
Dave
