It now seems that this may not be an xchat problem. I happened to notice yesterday that when I started my laptop up there was a little flicker, almost as if gnome-panel had been killed and then restarted instantly. If I do this manually (with "killall gnome-panel && gnome-panel" from a terminal) then when the gnome-panel restarts, it slowly redraws all the menus, launchers and icons, but does not redraw the xchat icon. All my other tray icons reappear (wicd, SpiderOak, bluetooth, gnome-power- manager, Pidgin, Volume Control) but not xchat.
So this bug seems to be a combination of two things; firstly that my gnome-panel seems to close and then re-open as soon as I log in, and xchat do something different with their tray icon which causes it not to be withdrawn when other icons are. -- xchat tray icon doesn't appear if xchat is in Startup Applications https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445509 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
