GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 96123
No icon in notification area when the applet is launched after other applications
Last modified: 2009-08-15 18:40:50 UTC
My "Default" session has the System Tray Applet and ACME (the multimedia keys daemon), which both start well at login. But ACME's icon doesn't show as it should in the System Tray. If I killev acme, then restart it (with its prefs dialog), the icon show correctly in the systray.
I suppose the problem here is that acme is started before the notification applet. cc'ing hadess, who will decide if it's an acme issue or not :)
It's a bug in the systray applet, or the egg systray code.
I was just wondering if it is possible to launch acme after the notification area (that means after the panel). This would be a simple workaround for this particular problem. But it'd be better to fix the systray, yes.
Changing the summary and setting severity to "major". Btw, the same problem happen when the panel crashes and is restarted...
Xavier: it seems to work now. Does it work for you?
Yes, it works now. I think the bug can be closed.
Thanks
