[newbie] System tray(s)

2004-02-10 Thread Paul Kaplan
Under mandrake rpms for kde 3.1.x and 3.2, once you add a system tray to a 
panel, you can't add one to a child panel (at least I haven't been able to 
under M9.2).  The command to add a tray under Panel MenuConfigure Panel is 
greyed out and unavailable once a tray is present on the master panel.  
However the kde 3.2 environment created with the KDE-supplied konstruct 
allowed me to add the system tray to a child panel as many times as I want 
to.  Any ideas how to get this to work with the mandrake rpm setup.
TIA
Paul

Have a look at the gKrellm app I think you can configure it to do a mail notify, not sure about IM.

Have you tried looking at GNOME's Panel applets? There are several mailchecking
applets, and some IM apps (e.g. GnomeICU) can embed status indicators into a
Panel. If you want, you can even swallow entire apps into a panel, overriding
the window manager.
