Description ab 2003-08-01 18:06:50 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030225

Description of problem:
I experienced bug # 75225 and tried to fix it by removing the notification area
from the panel, and then putting it back on.

Now the RHN alert applet is not displayed at all, and the keys icon is 1 pixel
high.  The 3 vertical dots placeholder is there, and seems to behave normally.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-panel-2.2.0.1-9

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rt click panel -> add to panel -> utilities -> notification area
2. (placeholder appears, but nothing else)
3. rt click hat -> system tools -> (choose anything, and give root password)
    

Actual Results:  placeholder and 1-pixel wide keys icon (see attachment)

Expected Results:  Should see RHN network alert icon next to the placeholder. 
Keys icon should be wider than 1 pixel.

I think this is just the same bug as bug #75225, isn't it?
Comment 4 ab 2003-08-08 14:03:33 UTC 
I wasn't sure if it counted as the same bug or not; I have done different things
and have different parameters from the original reporter, so just in case, I
started a new report here, and then linked between them.  

Feel free to mark it as a duplicate, if you think it's appropriate...
Comment 5 Alexander Larsson 2003-10-06 14:44:15 UTC 
Yeah, they are almost certainly the same. I think owen has a fix for it too.
Marking as dup.
