=== The PyHoca-GUI icon does not appear on Unity (Ubuntu 12.04 or later)? ===

Unity got its notification area (called Systray by the Ubuntu developers) back a
while ago, but only for a few applications: Java apps, Mumble, Wine applications,
Skype, and hp-systray.

As you can see: PyHoca-GUI is not among those... :-(

There used to be an easy way to either re-enable the Systray for all applications
or to whitelist a few applications (e.g. PyHoca-GUI) you can't live without.


Solution for Unity on Ubuntu 12.10 and 13.04...
-----------------------------------------------
Allow all applications to appear in the systray:

  $ gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist "['all']"

Add PyHoca-GUI (or any other application) to the systray whitelist:

  $ gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist \
      "['JavaEmbeddedFrame', 'Mumble', 'Wine', 'Skype', 'hp-systray', 'YOUR_APPLICATION']"

The above command includes the already whitelisted (by default) applications so you should
replace "YOUR_APPLICATION" with the application you want to whitelist (in our case:
"pyhoca-gui").


No solution for Unity on recent Ubuntu versions...
--------------------------------------------------
Use Ubuntu MATE Remix instead!!!
