Bug#311207: gnome-applets: upstream won't fix

Package: gnome-applets
Version: 2.8.2-3jds2
Followup-For: Bug #311207

Doesn't matter what the video card is.  This is a known bug.  See:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=311207

Upstream won't backport to 2.8.

This is fixed in gnome 2.10 (version in etch), and this bug can be
closed.  

I have attached a very intrusive patch that upgrades stickynotes to the
2.10.1 version, with the exception that notes won't always be on top (as
was the default behavior in gnome 2.8).  Patch is not intended for
inclusion in Debian, but for users who just want to fix the behavior.
It is not extensively tested, and the images in help files do not show
up properly.  Other than that, it appears to work ok.

Simply drop these into debian/patches and recompile:
98_libwnck_configure.patch
99_stickynotes_2.10.1_v2.patch
