Hi,

You need to be running an application compatible with the systray
protocol as defined by the freedesktop.org

E.g.: gaim, gnomemeeting, gnomeicu, but also xfcalendar, xfsession, etc.
are all able to plug an icon in the system tray.

Cheers,
Olivier.

   Interoperability is the keyword, uniformity is a dead end.
