KDE5: minimwatch can not create sys tray icon
Hi Simon,

I have upgraded my kubuntu 14.10 installation to 15.04 because july is the last month the old none-LTS kubuntu version is supported. Unfortunately KDE 5 drops the old xembed systray support and implements something new:
http://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/20...ray-icons/

When trying to start minimwatch on KDE 5 I only get a window that tells me "MinimWatch: unable to create tray icon".

Is there a chance that you can implement the new "status notifier" systray? Or is there a way to run minimwatch as a normal window instead of just a systray icon?

I also tried the workaround using the program "wmsystemtray" that opens an alternate systray but this does not work. (Tested with minimwatch and another tool , too)

Greetings
Gert
