Troubleshooting System Tray / Task Bar / Toolbar
Problem: You cannot see the system tray / notification area; so "Pidgin", "Transmission" and other icons do not show.
Solution: Right click on the gnome-panel and click "Add to Panel" and select "Notification Area".
Problem: You cannot move icons or an icon has moved to the wrong place on the toolbar/gnome-panel.
Solution: Hold Alt + Middle Mouse (Push down scroll-wheel) button and drag icon to the correct location.
Problem: You cannot remove an icon.
Solution: Alt + Right Click the icon or area and choose "Remove".
