[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 403135] Re: Notification area icon wrongly rendered/uses bg_color as a background (multiple apps)

[Alvaro Aleman]

Today I discovered by coincidence the fact, that if you start at first
Truecrypt and afterwards Banshee, the Truecrypt tray icon which is shown
in the beginning with the wrong write background becomes its normal
invisible background. it does not work the other way round.

I am using an up to date Lucid AMD 64  with Truecrypt 6.3a (from its
website)  and Banshee 1.6.0 (from the repository). The theme is the
official Ambiance from the repository. Tell me if you need any furhter
information.

Bug description:
The following bug may possibly depend on my setup, if so just tell me how to check this. I am using banshee 1.4.3-5 (in ubuntu karmic) and its notification area icon has a black background, unlike other applets that have a transparent background.

I attach a screenshot.

This bug is noticed when:
a) Themes set a background image in the gtkrc
b) If users set a custom image for the panel from Panel Properties > Background > Background Image

***This bug affects all themes , but has become easier to notice since the default light-themes use a background image.***

Also , see , comment #99 , might be a regression in gnome-panel since Karmic release.
