Comment 72 for bug 767095

I had this problem on Unity desktop, but since then I have re-installed
Ubuntu Natty from a setup disk. Before I had a weather indicator which
showed an icon on the notification area. If I then started Skype I got the
problem of a 1 pixel icon. However now I have no other indicators installed
and I have no issues with the Skype icon whatsoever. I was and still am
running Compiz. I have not tried installing any other Qt applications
though.
