GNOME_ClockApplet doesn't always load



I finally decided to upgrade from my old reliable Redhat 9 to Fedora 8.
For the most part it works great. I am having problems with GNOME_ClockApplet
and GNOME_WorkspaceSwitcherApplet, where they do not always appear on the panel
when I log in. Here are the pop-up errors I get:

=============
The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_ClockApplet".
The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_WorkspaceSwitcherApplet".
=============

Sometimes they appear on the Gnome panel and sometimes they do not. Here is the
output of .xsession-errors:

=============

Does anyone out there know what the cause of this is and what the fix is?

Thanks,
