I've set konversation to get in the system tray and I open it when I need it. Often running the process, sometimes from the status notifier item. Neither works. Reproducible: Always
What do you mean with doesn't raise? Is it getting shown and activated but not raised to top?
This doesn't seem to be Konversation specific, I can't raise other windows, e.g. kgpg (frameworks branch)
Same as bug #370338 which is the generic one for KWin. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 370338 ***
