Bug 154962 – KDE system tray icons not appearing properly in Gnome Panel Notification Area

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Brian Nisonger 2006-11-12 20:33:12 UTC]

I am running a mixed system, both stable and unstable x86.  I am running the unstable versions of KDE(3.5.5-r5 and GNOME (2.16.1). I have noticed that when I run a KDE application the icon is very small (just a small blip in the notification area).  Also seems to be slightly off-centered (sometimes I get the right edge of a icon).

Oh forgot to mention this is the Notification Area in Gnome not KDE.  They work fine in KDE.
