Description MalteSch 2003-03-20 18:25:11 UTC 
Kde-apps like klipper (only an example) dont appear in the system
notification area/systray but gnome2-apps do. Because I'm using a mixture
of KDE/GNOME this is really annoying.
Comment 1 Christian Marillat 2003-09-15 13:14:42 UTC 
Nothing to do with sawfish.
Comment 2 Vincent Untz 2004-12-23 08:03:25 UTC 
I'm told that Skype should appear in the notification area and it doesn't, so
this  bug is still valid.
Comment 3 Vincent Untz 2005-01-02 17:29:24 UTC 
The problems are in eggtraymanager.c

Patch

It seems to work in XFCE, so I looked at their code. It's mostly the same code,
but they change some stuff.

The patch more or less synchronizes our code with the XFCE code. The part which
is relevant to this bug starts with the comment "Make sure the icons have a
meaningfull size"...

updated patch

I was bitten by this bug as well, the gaim icon was crippled to a three-pixel
wide colorful line. I made some updates to the patch to actually compile with
2.9.4.
Comment 6 Kjartan Maraas 2005-01-25 17:11:25 UTC 
Anders, is this something we could get in and synced to the modules that use this?
Comment 7 Ernst Sjöstrand 2005-02-05 01:19:00 UTC 
Sounds great if the patch can fix this.
I see this every now and then, on gnome apps like gdesklets (often) and gaim
(sometimes) also.
Comment 8 Sebastien Bacher 2005-10-25 15:28:55 UTC 
Could this patch be applied upstream? We use it for months with the Ubuntu
package and get no complain about this bug, the fix would be nice for upstream
too :)
Comment 9 Vincent Untz 2005-12-31 13:38:20 UTC 
Ok, I committed it. And no, I don't want to be a maintainer for this code ;-)
