ImageJ locks up gnome-panel on Ubuntu

The subject covers it.  I am running the
most current ImageJ on Ubuntu (Hardy).
When I use ImageJ and have several windows
open I am unable to switch between virtual
desktops with the pager.  Also I am unable
to launch any programs by clicking on the
icon on the toolbar.  Applets such as the
calendar/clock are also in-accessible.

Switching desktops with the keyboard still
works.  Focus still follows my mouse.

I have not been able to tie this to any
specific action or sequence of actions,
but it is common enough for others to
have seen it, I think.

My system is x86_64.

BTW, ImageJ runs fine, it is just that I
lose control of my desktop.

I have googled for this and found nothing.
I have looked in the Xorg log file and
found nothing.  If no one here has seen
this, I guess I will ask next on an Ubuntu
list.

Thanks,
Ray
