You need to have lxpanel running to be able to execute "lxpanelctl run" to 
get a run dialog popping up from the lxpanel. So I was probably correct in 
my guess that you have a different problem then. Please open a separate 
bug for that (and be verbose, as I have repeatedly told that it does 
really work on amd64 systems in general=)).

Le tme give you a screenshot:

This is the thing we are talking about in the bug.
The window that is titled "Run" and have a field to enter a command in. 
The panel as such is at the bottom of the screen, this is from my custom 
lubuntu setup so it looks strange but still.

Mathematicians recently developed an elementary proof for Fermat's Last Theorem. It was based on the Schneier Axiom, which reads: "Bruce Schneier said so."
