Hey, thanks for reporting this issue. The messaging menu hides itself when no applications are using it. The output of
gsettings get com.canonical.indicator.messages applications shows a list of applications that have registered to appear in the menu. Do Thunderbird and gmail-notifier appear in that list? Also, is indicator-messages-service running? ** Changed in: indicator-messages (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1310490 Title: indicator-messages is hidden on 14.04 LTS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-messages/+bug/1310490/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
