Comment 21 for bug 111893

It seems that the applet/notification causing the problem is the "battery status" one. I set it up so that it doesn't show up on the notification area anymore and the problem hasn't occurred again. It's not a problem while I'm on AC power in my house but it sure bothers me when I on battery and a glance to the notification area could give me the status of it. Still, this is the best workaround I've seen.
