I also observe this bug with newer versions of tortoisehg. tortoisehg 2.2 from precise repos is fine, latest stable 2.4 from a ppa does only briefly show an icon inside the launcher and immediately removes it again. The icon or at least the space for it is visible for 1 or 2s during application startup.
As Robert already noted, login out and back in seems to fix the problem. This is true for tortoisehg. I did not log into unity 2d. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/951929 Title: Unity launcher and Alt-Tab switcher missing entry for gnome-terminal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/951929/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
