Version: (using KDE KDE 3.1.93) Installed from: Compiled From Sources OS: Linux When I start KDE, the Kxkb icon pops up in the upper-left corner of the screen, in stead of on the system tray. When I close Kxkb and start it again, it appears on the systemtray, where it belongs.
I just read in the kde mailing list that the same thing happens to the battery monitor systray icon. Maybe it's a kicker problem?
Same problem here.
I also confirm this for the kxkb icon but not for the battery icon as i dont have kde-cvs on a laptop to test.
I can confirm that the problem occurs with klaptop_check, in the mailing list I read it happens ramdomly, in may case is a fact. Everytime KDE starts the klaptop_check systray icon is on the upper left corner of my laptop screen. I use kde3.2b1 installed from sources using konstruct.
I have seen this too, but I also have seen such a thing with KDE-3.1.x on startup short before the kicker appears. When kicker was visible, the laptop-icon the reappeared in the systray. In 3.2 the icon stays in the top left corner (even when kicker is there).
kwin/systray problem
