Same problem here on my Samsung N310. I had this problem in 12.04 and 12.10, with and without Skype Wrapper, always with the latest stable Skype version.
I noticed something that might be of interest: the first time the drop- down menu is clicked on, the first short appearance doesn't show the "activate" element, whereas it appears on the second definitive appearance. It is then always here, but the menu always flickers once. I am currently using 4.0.0.8 without Skype Wrapper. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1041349 Title: menu from skype applet flashes twice when opening Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Skype 4.0.0.8 running the Gnome desktop (Unity disabled), Ubuntu 12.04. Single-click on the running Skype icon in the Gnome desktop panel, (which resides in Indicator Applet 0.5.0.) The menu appears, but flashes twice in doing so, unlike the menus of the other applets running there. This isn't just ugly--I've found myself repeatedly clicking the icon, thinking somehow I should do something different to open the menu. (In fact there are further problems rendering the menu under some circumstances.) This bug was reported to Skype, https://jira.skype.com/browse/SCL-896 They assert that it is a Ubuntu issue (not even a Gnome issue).
