Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

I have three monitors here, two powered by a large desktop via TwinView and a third one running a separate X-session. This X-session has it's own panel with a systray in it, but when I start programs like Pidgin and others, which usually place icons in the systray, they don't appear there. This works actually fine, when I start the programs on the main X-session (then they appear in the main systray). There are no error messages regarding this in the xsession-errors file, so I don't have any further information.

Release: Ubuntu Intrepid
Gnome-Panel: 1:2.24.1-0ubuntu2.1
