Description Chris Fordham 2008-05-06 06:51:50 UTC
Version:           1.01 (using KDE 4.0.3)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

Konversation with minimize to tray option, does not minimize to tray - no icon goes in tray.

I've noticed that not many programs that load into tray as well with KDE 4.03 fail to which makes it unuseable.
Comment 1 Eike Hein 2008-05-06 09:34:56 UTC
Upon enabling the tray icon, to minimize Konversation to the system tray, you have to click the window close button, which is the one with the "x". Clicking the minimize button minimizes the window to the taskbar instead. This is the default KDE system tray mechanic.

The system tray implementation in KDE 4.0.3 may also be broken, which we have no influence over.
Comment 2 Chris Fordham 2008-05-06 09:38:31 UTC
I believe its more likely the system tray is broken. Closing windows etc. does not force the required programs to go into systray.
Comment 3 Eike Hein 2008-05-06 10:03:45 UTC
It's quite possible. The KDE 4 system tray applet has always been flakey in KDE 4, and breaks every couple of weeks in SVN trunk.
Comment 4 Chris Fordham 2008-05-06 10:05:04 UTC
I'm not sure how that passed a stable release. Any idea when its going to be stable. This is a crazy bug!
Comment 5 Eike Hein 2008-05-06 10:10:06 UTC
Nope, sorry :(. There's a 4.0.4 coming this month, and 4.1 in July.
