Is anyone else having problems with the Desktop Applets in Gnome on 9.3?
The SUSEwatcher and SUSEplugger don't load properly into the panel and just sit on the desktop. I also have two display setting applets. It doesn't make any difference if I delete one, it reappears when I next log in.
Has anyone found a fix or will I have to wait for a fix from SUSE?

Yes, I was having the same problems. In fact at one point the display setting applets mushroomed to 6 in number. In solving problems like this I use the principle "if it doesn't work get a bigger hammer". :-)
I created a new panel to which I moved only the items of interest from the original panel. Left behind were watcher & plugger. When I finished tailoring the new panel I replaced the old with the new (delete old & move new to old's location).
Another thing that can be very helpful is to run gnome-session-save. This takes a snapshot of the current session. That snapshot is then used as the session on the next login. Be sure to run gnome-session-save in background unless you want the launching terminal to reappear on the next login.
