I can has systray?
Published:
In Plasma 5, support for the XEmbed-based “legacy” systray protocol was removed: only the new SNI protocol is handled. However, a lot of applications still do not handle the new protocol: Qt4 and Qt5 applications can be fixed by installing the sni-qt
(currently in experimental) and libdbusmenu-qt5
respectively but other applications (such as GTK ones) must be patched/recompiled with SNI support. Without this, windows disappear into oblivion 😿. You can have a seamless systray-enabled Plasma panel with a single (OK, two) line of shell 😼.
