when you see this "strange secondary window", if you run xwininfo from a konsole window and then click on that window, what is the output?
(In reply to comment #1) Hi First of all, thanks for the quick reply This is the output I get: xwininfo: Window id: 0x1e00de2 "plasma-desktop" Absolute upper-left X: 0 Absolute upper-left Y: 994 Relative upper-left X: 0 Relative upper-left Y: 0 Width: 1680 Height: 56 Depth: 32 Visual: 0x23 Visual Class: TrueColor Border width: 0 Class: InputOutput Colormap: 0x1e00001 (not installed) Bit Gravity State: NorthWestGravity Window Gravity State: NorthWestGravity Backing Store State: NotUseful Save Under State: no Map State: IsViewable Override Redirect State: no Corners: +0+994 -0+994 -0-0 +0-0 -geometry 1680x56+0-0
I should add more information: Two days ago I installed KDE 4.4.80 (KDE 4.5 Beta1) and the problem remains. I also uninstalled (completely) VLC and its plugins and re-insnstalled, and it's still the same. I'm also experiencing the same problem with Banshee. Please let me know if you need any additional information or screenshots. Thanks a lot
i just installed vlc to hopefully replicate this ... and i'm not seeing it. screenshots would be great, and any additional information as to how to reproduce the issue would be more than welcome. on the off chance it is system tray related: when vlc starts, is there an entry for it in the system tray? if you turn off "Show system tray window" in the Preferences dialog (under the Tools menu) and restart vlc, does the "mystery window" persist?
Created attachment 47654 [details] VLC with taskbar icon option activated
Hi Please dismiss my previous comment. I was trying to attach the screenshots not knowing that by uploading them, a comment was posted automatically. Your off chance was absolutely correct. I disabled the system tray icon option in both applications and the strange window went away. Anyways, here I leave you the links for the screenshots I took. My system is in Spanish, so I have pointed out the menu options just in case. 1) VLC with system tray icon option activated and the strange secondary window: http://h.imagehost.org/0309/Screen_1.jpg 2) VLC with system tray icon option disabled: http://h.imagehost.org/0536/Screen_2.jpg 3) Banshee with system tray icon option activated and the strange secondary window: http://h.imagehost.org/0936/Screen_3.jpg 4) Banshee with system tray icon option disabled:http://a.imagehost.org/0241/Screen_4.jpg Thanks a lot for your help! regards
ok, so it is related to the system tray. (huzzah for wild guess, hm? ;) and it only happens with certain applications. are you using kwin for the window manager? what's interesting is that in both cases the icon also has an incorrect background in the system tray. something is failing in the embedding of those trays .....
Well... this is embarrassing... I am certain that I'm using Kwin and that I don't have compiz installed on my system. I tried to double check it, but with the new distribution of options in System Settings, I just can't find it... so we'll have to take my word on this. Regarding the issues with the system tray, I used to have a similar problem with emesene 1.6-dev PPA-r1991 (KDE 4.4.3). When the system tray icon option was enabled, it showed there, but instead of the regular icon, I just saw a white square which didn't respond if I clicked on it. First I "fixed" it by downgrading to the previous version, but then (like a month after) I removed it and re-installed it and the problem was fixed. Is this a general bug or did I just break something? thanks
also, the bt seems related to python. what plasmoids do you run? default ones or also something else? (python based i suppose)
Back then when I reported this issue, I was using the following plasmoids: - System Tray 1.0 (Alexander Rodin) [Embeded In lower panel] - Task Manger 1.0 (Christina Mollekopf) [Embeded In lower panel] - Lancelor Launcher 1.9.5 (Ivan Cukic) [Embeded In lower panel] - System Monitor 1.0 (Petri Damsten) - Show Desktop 1.0 (Petri Damsten) [Embeded In lower panel] - Trashbin 1.0 (Marco Martin) [Embeded In lower panel] - Plasma Pyweather 1.6 (Hardik Mehta) - Digital Clock 1.0 (Riccardo Laconeli) [Embeded In lower panel] - Wifi Signal Strenght Meter 0.2 (Mark Jaroski) I say "back then" because after the update I downloaded yesterday from Kubuntu Beta Backports, this is the least of my problems... Now all those plasmoids which weren't embeded are gone, no matter if I restore them after login, they just go away after loging out. I also have no sound and I can't connect to the internet unless I launch knetworkmanager as root. But this is expected, since I downloaded beta versions. Regarding these new issues, I'll just wait and learn. About the issue that concerns us here, I also saw it happen with Kmplayer but only when opening a media file and it kept happening even with the system tray icon option disabled. Thanks for your help Regards!
