Public bug reported: Hi, In Gutsy Gibbon Tribe 6 (build date 4th September 2007) the Java version 6 from Sun (java full version "1.6.0_02-ea-b01") can't use the system tray _if_ Gutsy has "Desktop Effects" enabled (System->Preferences->Appearance->Desktop Effects: Normal Effects or Extra Effects). Please note that: - Java 6 _can_ use the system tray if it has been launched _before_ desktop effects have been enabled. - Java 6 _cannot_ use the system tray (throws an exception) if it has been launched with desktop effects already enabled. I understand that Java 6 from Sun is not fully opened yet so the Ubuntu developers might not be able to help here, but my duty is to at least report this problem. I would provide a short video demonstrating this but the recording application I'm using (gtk-recordMyDesktop) doesn't work correctly during desktop effects being enabled/disabled.
