If your /etc/X11/xinit/startxwinrc mentions fbpanel, you don't have the
latest version (see [1]), so maybe try updating or reinstalling the
xinit package?
If you have a custom ~/.startxwinrc, then base it on the current
/etc/X11/xinit/startxwinrc and end it with 'exec
/usr/bin/xwin-xdg-menu', or even 'exec sleep infinity' if you don't like
that.
