In 12.04 (Unity DE), you need to use dconf-editor (included in package dconf-tools) to edit the configration: sudo apt-get install dconf-tools dconf-editor Go to desktop > unity > panel the name is systray-whitelist In Value, add 'all', in front of the lists, turn them to something like: ['all', 'JavaEmbeddedFrame', 'Wine', 'Update-notifier'] after that, close the dconf-editor and run: pkill iptux iptux You will see iptux icon showed up in the notify area. shareimprove this answer edited Apr 23 '14 at 11:09 Eric Carvalho 18.2k134476 answered Apr 23 '14 at 10:44 pradeep 111

It seems like iptux crashed and could not cleanly close port no 2425 or it may also mean that an instance of iptux is running, so you need to first kill all instances of iptux from the command line(use Ctrl+Alt+t to open a terminal) using: killall iptux and also manually close port no 2425 if that did not close this port using: sudo fuser 2425/tcp and then restart iptux shareimprove this answer
