I've just had a very confusing time trying to get an Empathy icon visible in the notification area:
- I do *not* have an indicator applet running; I have a widescreen monitor and use vertical panels, and the indicator applet doesn't support these (and the authors do not appear to wish to support them; see #410254). - I start Empathy. I have no contacts. I close the window. I get the minimise-to-panel animation, but nothing appears. - ps shows that Empathy is still running, despite having no window and no icon. Investigation shows that the icon only appears if I have at least one account. I assume there's a corner case here where if there are no accounts there is no status and therefore no icon. Either way it's not pretty having an application running that I can't interact with. I believe this bug may not be as fixed as it looks... -- Empathy is unusable if indicator applet is not on the panel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/435329 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
