Problem also occurs on my Asus EEE PC 901 - definitively no Nvidia in there...
I encounter this problem after I started using Compiz. One icon is missing (mostly the network icon) another has a fake (i.e. not functioning) copy - mostly the bluetooth or sound icon. Rather annoying, so I made a workaround: a little script that kills gnome-panel - which is then automatically restart. pid=`ps -C gnome-panel -o pid=` kill $pid This script is executed at start-up via 'start-up applications'. When Ubuntu is started, this script is unnoticeable executed and when the notification first appears it is already 'repaired'. -- notification area shows wrong icons. erratic behaviour https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439448 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
