Activate either the systray plugin for the panel or cross 'Activate
systray' at the taskbar setup. You should be getting the systray
plugin's systray icon showing up then.

I'm curious, do you run smproxy? That might solve your issue. Besides
that, I'm running the session manager INCLUDING Firebird and other
critical stuff without the slightest error (well, it doesn't start up at
the last desktop is was used at but thats rather a Firebird related
issue).

Oh please .. why do you think you email's on the antispam lists the
admin of this mailinglist is using? Apart from that you might want to
write a mail to him.
