Hey, First a little history. When i installed Fedora 7 (kde live cd) for the first time i had the puplet problem but back than it was with some files that where not loaded by kde while it should have been. i reported a bug report in bugzilla for that and it has been fixed in Fedora 7. But now in Fedora 8 i have the problem again (not the same but with the same result). This time it's not because of files that aren't loaded but because of errors in puplet itself (or one of the programs puplet is using): ERROR:dbus.connection:Exception in handler for D-Bus signal: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dbus/connection.py", line 210, in maybe_handle_message self._handler(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/bin/puplet", line 279, in updates_avail_handler self.trayicon.set_tooltip(num) TypeError: GtkStatusIcon.set_tooltip() argument 1 must be string or None, not int Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/puplet", line 384, in <module> main() File "/usr/bin/puplet", line 381, in main p.run() File "/usr/bin/puplet", line 371, in run gtk.main() KeyboardInterrupt And i just filled in this as a bug report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=260681
