The problem is probably the following:

I have tried out the bahavior of hp-systray in Natty. If I left-click on
the icon nothing happens. If I right-click I get the menu which we want
to have, with all printers and the entry for the HP Toolbox. So it seems
that sni-qt converts correctly: the non-functional left click is
converted to the empty menu and the right-click menu is ignored. So for
Oneiric the minimum-invasive solution would be to modify the hp-systray
program so that the menu opens on left-click.

In the file

/usr/share/hplip/ui4/systemtray.py

The icon with the menu is made up by the class SystemTrayApp and within
this class the menu is built by the method setMenu(). In the end of this
method the menu is connected to the right click via

self.tray_icon.setContextMenu(self.menu)

Now I need some Python-Qt expert to patch this code so that the menu
opens on the left clcik in Natty and so in Oneiric it appears as the
menu of the indicator applet.

Any help is appreciated.
