Complete Translation as follows with a couple updates for simplicity: "To get this effect, we must do the following:
1. Enable the source code repository. Ubuntu Software Center > Edit > Software Sources > and check Source Code. 2. In the console go to the appropriate directory (cd /usr/src) and type the command: (note: current version might not be 2.30.2, so just look for the proper folder if it's different and cd into that folder.) sudo apt-get update & & sudo apt-get build-dep gnome-panel & & sudo apt- get source gnome-panel & & cd gnome-panel-2.30.2 3. Now we need to fix the source code. Type: gksu gedit applets/notification_area/na-tray.c 4. On line 35 we see (It might not be line 35 in current version, but just look for this phrase) # Define ICON_SPACING 1 Replace 1 with the desired number. I'm using 10. 5. Built and install the package with the following command. sudo dpkg-buildpackage Now you can re-login to the system, or remove the applet and re-add it. This will update the changes.
