If I start kmail in gnome, the wallet icon does not show up properly in the gnome panel at the top of the screen.
Oh, I thought you had been talking about menu icon. Screenshot? (would help). Otherwise, looks like a gnome problem to me.
KMail is a KDE 3 app, this uses the KWallet kded module from kdelibs3. For KDE 4 apps, the module from kdelibs 4 is used instead. kdeutils only contains the KWalletManager GUI. So I'm reassigning this to kdelibs3.
Can't reproduce generic problem: 1. System->Preferences->Wallet Management Tool 2. systray icon appears
Still can't reproduce running kmail, I see wallet icon appear in gnome systray.
ok, wierd, I think there's still a gnome buglet here. Start kmail : kmail on screen, no systray icons close kmail : systray applet appears click on systray applet: kmail on screen, systray icon disappears. does gnome only show systray icons for non-onscreen apps or something?
OK, now I'm not seeing any kwallet activity or systray icon at all. wierdness.
I fixed my icon problem by removing my ~/.kde directory. I must have chosen an alternate icon set at one point which caused the initial problem.
Looks like we can close this then.
