Thanks for reporting this bug. I cannot reproduce, therefor I need more input from you. When you right-click on an empty spot in the notification area, do you see a menu or just nothing happens? Can you try lxpanel from updates-testing? Thanks for responding. I just see the void of space and nothing happens. I will try to enable updates-testing and report back. Greetings from Münster ;-) Did the yum update lxpanel with update-testing enabled and the problem persists. I think I have found a workaround for the time being. Put the script below in /etc/pm/sleep.d dir (for example in 01powermanager). Put your own username in the right spot, maybe change your display number if applicable.
#!/bin/bash
case $1 in
thaw|resume)
su - <Your username> -c "export DISPLAY=:0 && /usr/bin/xfce4-power-manager --restart"
exit 0
;;
*) exit $NA
;;
esac
The workaround kinda sometimes works, but a real fix it certainly isn't. The notification area is still expanding. Anybody still working on this? Here is the upstreambug on the xfce4-project https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8424 LXDE project http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3458395&group_id=180858&atid=894869 Lubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfce4-power-manager/+bug/846878 Argh, I had the necessary patch already in the F16 package for quite a while but I did not update F15. This explains why only a F15 user complains. Thanks for Michael to the pointer in the LP bug report! Please see my last comments: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxpanel/+bug/846878 we have a working patch http://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-power-manager/commit/?id=643962eb2d46d48042db0ab278c46813da8b6e9b xfce4-power-manager-1.0.10-3.fc15 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 15. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/xfce4-power-manager-1.0.10-3.fc15 Package xfce4-power-manager-1.0.10-3.fc15: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 15 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing xfce4-power-manager-1.0.10-3.fc15' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-2475/xfce4-power-manager-1.0.10-3.fc15 then log in and leave karma (feedback). Unluckily Henry Gebhardt was discovering a use-case where the empty spaces still appear. If you remove/add the battery the empty spaces are there again. I can reproduce it with the latest patched version of xfce4-power-manager on lubuntu 12.04 Because i dont have Fedora, can someone of you test this use-case? As far as I can tell this is fixed in the Fedora package, but compared to stock 1.0.10 it contains a number of patches from git. For a complete list see http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=xfce4-power-manager.git;a=tree;hb=7d8b84e5 xfce4-power-manager-1.0.10-2.fc15 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 15. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/xfce4-power-manager-1.0.10-2.fc15 Package xfce4-power-manager-1.0.10-2.fc15: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 15 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing xfce4-power-manager-1.0.10-2.fc15' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-2987/xfce4-power-manager-1.0.10-2.fc15 then log in and leave karma (feedback). Btw I have the same problem in F16. xfce4-power-manager-1.0.10-2.fc15 has been pushed to the Fedora 15 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. I am experiencing the same problem in Fedora 16. Is there a fix available there as well? I cannot see an update available in the repositories. |
