2nd user, notification area has no icon

Post by Eucalyptus »

Hi,

Using Linux Mint 7 x32. I created a 2nd user which has no admin privileges. When logged in with this user, there are some differences for the desktop:

1. Appearance, Visual Effects, can only be set to none. (could be set to normal for 1st user). Graphic card is ATI Radeon 9200.

2. Created a new panel on the top, added notification area. The notification area is always empty. No network icon, no Mint Update notification icon.

Can you confirm this issue and is there a way to fix this?

Thanks in advance.
