Have you tried on a new created user account? Please attach ~/.xsession-errors file just after reproducing the problem. Also attach screenshots showing the problem. Finally, try to update to gtk+-2.24.6 to check if that version fixes this

panel and slider control

This image show an opaque panel with the slider stuck at transparent.  The slider will not move.

here is the xsession-errors for the new user

Attached image and xsession errors are with x11-libs/gtk+-2.24.5-r1. Upgrading to 2.24.7 fixes this problem.  New user account had no effect on bug.

OK, then, will try to stabilize 2.24.7 as soon as possible (2.24.6 is not ready as it has some problems with filechooser code and it caused me to decide to stabilize older 2.24.5-r1 instead)

Gnome team, ok to stabilize in 15 days if no major problem is found (I am already using this version and will use it every day ;))

We need to remember to also apply the following patch if no gtk+-2.24.8 is released before:
http://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?h=gtk-2-24&id=0a0fd5af99f2ae9b0f8cc6b943b98b7be43ed723

Not sure if it will help with opera problem (if anybody has time to check, fine :D), but in any case, this also needs to be applied

[Comment 8 Pacho Ramos 2011-12-17 15:10:45 UTC]

This is FIXED as we consider bugs fixed when resolved in testing. Proper version will be stabilized in bug 393007, that is simply waiting for arch teams to solve it
