Minimize to System Tray (Linux)
Hey All-
I figure I post this comment since others might not able to get the minimize to work and in case I forget how to do it myself. :)
Here are the steps I used to get Songbird to the system tray:
1. Install AllTray
2. Go to Program Launcher in System>Preferences>Main Menu
3. Create a program launcher by clicking New Item.
4. Add a icon, name, comment and add the following command:
alltray location_of_songbird_program
5. This will add a program launcher under Applications.
6. *Click on the Songbird icon in the system tray to minimize/maximize.
*Minimize button on Songbird doesn't work, at least for me.
Launcher Screenshot
I would like to add that Songbird is a great program. The only reason I sought another media player is because Amarok2 wouldn't work for me on Jaunty. It wouldn't even play one song before it crashed.
It would be great if Songbird could add:
a crossfade feature
minimize to system tray option
bookmarks button while in browser mode OR/AND let you separate your current bookmarks by creating folders.
