Question #37005 on pidgin in ubuntu changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin/+question/37005
John Bailey proposed the following answer: Go to Tools->Preferences. On the Interface tab, if "Show system tray icon" is set to anything but "always", then change it. If that still doesn't make the icon appear, make sure you have a notification area in your panel. -- You received this question notification because you are a member of Pidgin Support, which is an answer contact for pidgin in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Support mailing list Support@pidgin.im http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
