Minimwatch problems on ubuntu gnome

[simoncn]

In your original post, you said the icon appears on the bar at bottom left. Did you mean that it appears as a black square or as the correct colour?

The only icon I see at top left is the desktop icon for launching MinimWatch. This "two minims and stave" icon is not the same as the "single minim" icon that is used to control MinimWatch. Which of these icons are you seeing at top left?

Is there a development build of the latest version of Ubuntu without Unity? For me to report this to the Java developers, I would probably need to be able to reproduce the problem on this version.
