 Using Ubuntu 11.04 with Unity.

 First of all, we must point out that to let vidalia shows icon in Unity
 sys-tray panel (top right, where infos like clock, volume, etc... are) an
 user must "whitelist" this application in ''com.canonical.Unity.Panel''
 (using command-line or tools like ''dconf-editor''): I believe it's a
 Unity behaviour so it's ok.

 And now the bug: at system start-up, Vidalia often doesn't create correct
 icon in sys-tray panel, but it "paints" only a very little green point
 instead of the real vidalia icon. User can continue using vidalia by
 right-clicking this very little point (as attached screen-shot shows), but
 it's very difficult to perform due the very small dimensions.

 I believe it must be fixed.
