Nah, I want it fixed mate. I like things to work. There will be a solution. It's just a matter of finding it.
Ok so just to clarify: the other themes don't have the left-edge-of-the-screen clicky bit yet. They still rely on the little +/- icons above the panel, or next to the menu, depending on the theme.
Also whichever theme you are using the front page should be fine. If that is still playing up on other themes that would point to a problem in the block coding.
