[SOLVED] xfce 4.10 problems

I upgraded 20minutes ago to xfce 4.10, and the only problems i'm facing are:
- Panel applets are all on the left side of the panel, as if windows list plugin (hope i translated it the right way) doesn't keep any space... and i can't move them to the end of the panel, but i can only change their position compared to the other applets.

- Double entry in settings manager to lock the screen before suspend/hibernation (one in energy settings, the other in session settings) but if you enable one, the other remains disabled, so is it a bug? Anyway i use slimlock so i don't need it.

Is anyone facing the same problems?
Is there a solution for the first problem? (may be i only have to close that panel and make a new one.)
Thanks!

There's a new plugin "Separator". Add it between the window list and the panel applets, then check "expand" in the separator properties.

Double entry in settings manager to lock the screen before suspend/hibernation (one in energy settings, the other in session settings) but if you enable one, the other remains disabled, so is it a bug? Anyway i use slimlock so i don't need it.

I have both enabled without problems.
I also wondered why there are two settings for this, see here https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6019

Re: [SOLVED] xfce 4.10 problems

I am having another issue: if i set the touchpad to disable while writing, and then i plug the mouse in, and suspend / hibernate, then if i remove the mouse, that option won't work: i write but i can move the cursor with my touchpad too.
Is anybody else having experiencing this issue? Solutions?
Thanks

EDIT: don't know why, but it seems gone...fixed by nothing interesting...i did nothing but it's fixed ahah nice, i love xfce!
