Public bug reported:
When amsn runs, the main tray icon is sometimes a vertical line one
pixel wide. Because of its colour, i can only see it if i make the panel
bar transparent. It happens irrespective of whether the panel is
transparent when amsn is started.
This happens occasionally to the main amsn icon, but the amsn mail
notification icon is almost always just a thin vertical line one pixel
wide. amsn or hotmail still appears if i carefully click the thin line.
at first i couldn't figure out what was wrong with my settings, but
after making the panel transparent i can see the vertical line that
signifies amsn icons should be there.
it is as if the icons have been "compressed" to one pixel.
This has been happening to me on jaunty, intrepid and lucid. i have not
tried maverick or natty yet.
I thought this could be related to the fact that i hadn't done a fresh
install since jaunty, only upgraded. however, i did a clean install (for
other reasons), which is what i'm using now, and the problem is the same
as ever.
i have also tried using metacity instead of the default compiz, but this
has no effect on the problem.
occurrence of this bug is seemingly random, but more often than not.
lsb_release -rd:
Description: Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS
Release: 10.04
i will be glad to provide any further pertinent information, or try any
reasonable experiments to help solve this. no other IM application
available on ubuntu provides the level of msn functionality as amsn, so
an alternative application has never seemed an option.
kind regards,
ex-oficio
