Oh wll the pictures are useless, but it's 100% reproducible.

I've had this happen to me with Beam as well. Doing a clean installation (versus jam update-all) solved this for me. But then the revision I upgraded to had other problems, and so I downgraded to hrev33966 for the meantime. But in any case, please try backing up your settings and doing a clean install, can you start Beam again?

It would still be interesting what is actually happening. A stack trace would be nice to have, at least.

You're right. I did a clean installation and now both works. To Axel: From memory the backtrace involved DeskTop::ShowWindow(), and Window::SetVisible(). Unfortunately I can't remember any more, and since the pictures I took were crap, let's close this as invalid.

Beam can't install the deskbar replicant since it can't resolve a symbol, but this should be another ticket, I guess.
