can not click the first indicator in Unity

[Robert Roth]

Binary package hint: indicator-applet

In Unity with all updates installed, most of the times I can't click the first indicator, regardless of what it is, I have to click the second one, and move the mouse over the first one to open it.

I have experienced this with RadioTray, then with the weather-indicator, and thought this might be a custom indicator problem, and then removed all third-party indicators. That way I only had bluetooth, sound menu, network, mail, time, me menu, and session indicator, I guess this is a stock indicator configuration. Then I tried to click the bluetooth indicator, it didn't work, have to click the sound menu and move the mouse over the bluetooth icon to open it.

i see it too. maybe something to do with whitelisting apps?

I think the original bug reported by Robert was bug 761409 which is fixed in latest unity. Josh which version of unity are you using?

[Josh Burghandy (kid1000002000)]

I am using the latest version. I had originally updated from 10.10 to the beta, but am still having issues even after doing a complete upgrade. It appears whitelisting icons causes the problem. It would sure be nice to have this fixed!

Hi folks,

I'm using the latest 11.04 64b / Unity and observe the same here.

the issue seems similar to bug #761409
