System tray icons and dconf-editor in 14.04

Solution 1:

Try this:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:gurqn/systray-trusty
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Programs need to supply an indicator. Shutter has a tray icon in 14.04. See preferences, behavior:

xchat and bomgar need to supply this too.

in USC there are 2 possible packages for xchat:
```
xchat-gnome-indicator
xchat-indicator
```

You need to load it in the XChat-gnome preferences:

of if you use XChat is is under "alerts":

Both are added to the tray (see the envelope):

and looking for bomgar I found this: http://mirror.bomgar.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/x/xchat-indicator/ Looks like it uses x-chat so this one is covered.
