This is still happening on my Dell netbook with the standard (not netbook) version of Karmic installed, updated through this morning. It just happened to me after I logged off and logged back in to Gnome. There were duplicate volume-control icons. But then I looked away and looked back a minute or two later, and the icons had redrawn correctly! (My info is in Bug #555995, set as a duplicate to this one).

I seemed to have gained this today after upgrading this machine from Karmic to Lucid beta. Machine has Intel graphics and is a laptop (and answers to the name davros). I've included a screen shot. I'd say there are 3 distinct things happening: 1) The power icon keeps coming and going even though it's plugged into AC continuously - that could be an artifact of the way in which the power thing works? 2) We have those vertical stripes. 3) There is a growing gap between the two chunks of vertical lines which makes me think the notification area is growing for some reason.

[Bug 439448] Re: notification area shows wrong icons. erratic behaviour
I think this may be in some way related to compiz. I had the same exact thing happen to me - sound icon was being duplicated in place of the networkmanager icon. I'm using the nvidia 173 driver as the 185 package failed to work for me. I thought removing the icon then replacing it might do the trick, but when I removed the icon, gnome-panel got caught it some loop and just kept restarting itself every second over and over. Restarting GDM/X/GNOME did not help. I then removed compiz and not only did the loop problem go away, but so did the duplicate icon issue. I'm not 100% sure of the correlation as I don't know where the gnome- panel logs are stored to even check what the error was, but adding it just in case the compiz guys might have an idea of what is going on. -Brian ** Also affects: compiz Importance: Undecided Status: New -- notification area shows wrong icons. erratic behaviour https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439448 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

** Description changed: Binary package hint: gnome-panel I'm using karmic x86_64, updated as of 2009-09-30. It's very hard to describe the bug, so a screen shot is attached. As seen on the screen shot, after start up the notification area gets scrambled, it shows, in case of this screen shot, two volume control icons, one of them is the actual volume control icon, and the other one is just a copy of it, it just sits there, clicking on it doesn't do anything, and right clicking on it will bring the standard notification area sub-menu. Also missing here is a network manager icon. However: The phantom icon can be a clone of any other icon in the notification area. I've seen already phantoms of bluez icons, network manager icons and so on. And the missing icon,can also be any of the other icons, there is no rule or consistency :) Also, killing the application with a missing icon will remove the phantom icon, starting the application afterwards will show a correct functioning icon. In the case of this screen shot, the missing icon was of a nm-applet, so after I killed the nm-applet, one of the volume icons (the phantom one) disappeared, I then started the nm-applet again, and the correct icon for it appeared and worked as intended. I haven't seen any related messages in the logs for this. If you need more information and/or some additional testing,I will be glad to do it.

Someone above suggested switching VT using Ctrl+Alt+F1 and then back again to Ctrl+Alt+F7. I had this bug where I had two volume control icons and no network manager. I did the above switch and switch back, and now I am seeing just a single volume control icon, and an empty space where the network manager should be. Therefore, in my experience, switching and switching back fixes the phantom icon issue, but doesn't fix the main problem which is that some icons are physically missing, and can't be clicked on. Also I get this bug fairly sporadically, but it's always exactly one icon missing and one icon duplicated.

[Bug 439448] Re: notification area shows wrong icons. erratic behaviour
I am not sure of this, but I believe this might be an Nvidia driver issue. I first saw this happen when using ARCH when they had updated to the 185 series drivers and saw it continue in the 190 series drivers. One can work around the problem if after start up( or login to gnome) one switches to VT1 ( by ctrl-alt-F1 ) and then switches back to VT7 (by ctrl-alt-F7 ). I think that this works because one is forcing a re-draw of the panel. My wild guess is that on start up, the icons are drawn on the notification area one at a time. When another icon is added to the notification area, it might not fit, so the notification areal is re- sized and the already drawn icons are moved over by a bit block transfer to either the left(or right). Sometimes the area that a moved icon previously occupied is not then erased with the background. Again, this is just pure speculation. Interestingly, if one adds the hide button to the panel. one will get a half icon drawn on start up, rather than a fully drawn duplicate icon. Forcing a re-draw of the panel by hiding and then showing the panel using the hide button will not fix the problem.

[Bug 439448] Re: notification area shows wrong icons. erratic behaviour
I am still seeing this bug with RC and updated packages. After login, the notification area shows wrong icons. In the attached screenshot (after-login.png), for instance, the power management icon is displayed twice while the NetworkManager icon is not shown at all. Removing the notification area from the panel and re-adding it works around the issue, as can be seen in the attached screenshot (after-na-restart.png). ** Attachment added: after-login.png http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34633494/after-login.png -- notification area shows wrong icons. erratic behaviour https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439448 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I am still seeing this bug with the RC. In my case the bluetooth icon doubles and the network manager icon is missing. Starting a guest session and coming back from it the phantom icon completely disappears only leaving empty space in the system tray. -- notification area shows wrong icons. erratic behaviour https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439448 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Well, this bug haven't happened to me for the last 4-5 days, so I've marked the status of it in the gnome's bugzilla as invalid. Should I change the status in launchpad also, or should it be left as triaged? -- notification area shows wrong icons. erratic behaviour https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439448 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 439448] Re: notification area shows wrong icons. erratic behaviour
From what they described in the bug report, it seems like different bug, their icons wheren't drawn, but where functional. In my case the icons are drawn, albeit wrong ones, yet they aren't functional at all. In any case, I haven't seen this happen on my laptop in the last few days, and I do restart or log off and on quite a lot during the day... So if the bug won't reappear over the course of the next few days, I will updates it's status here and on gnome as invalid or not reproducible. I will keep you posted :) -- notification area shows wrong icons. erratic behaviour https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439448 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
