Re: [Lxde-list] LXPanel conflict with ibus tray icon &Freemind, on my sytem

Hi Nomnex,

I am hearing a lot on this list about lxpanelx being a more actively maintained lxpanel fork with more bugs fixed. Maybe it can fix your bugs too?

I am not an expert and have not tried lxpanelx myself, but if lxpanel is so problematic to you it might be worth a try.

Hope this post is helpful.
