It's a funny one, and it had me stymied for a long time back in April,
but it turns out that you can sometimes get yourself into a situation
where your loopback interface is not working, and mico/panel/applets
might be the only symptoms you ever see.

I always make sure I do an

	ifconfig lo up
	route add -net 127.0.0.0

before I start the panl up.

I don't know if this is your problem, though.
