I finally decided to upgrade from my old reliable Redhat 9 to Fedora 8.
For the most part it works great. I am having problems with
GNOME_ClockApplet
and GNOME_WorkspaceSwitcherApplet, where they do not always appear on
the panel
when I log in. Here are the pop-up errors I get:
=============
The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_ClockApplet".
The panel encountered a problem while loading
"OAFIID:GNOME_WorkspaceSwitcherApplet".
=============
Sometimes they appear on the Gnome panel and sometimes they do not.
Here is the
output of .xsession-errors:

Does anyone out there know what the cause of this is and what the fix is?
Thanks,

Did you wipe out the /tmp directory during the upgrade?
I say this because I have had this issue on F7 and all I have had to do
was clean out the /tmp directory.
