Two Bluetooth icons in system tray (Debian 11).

#1 Post by LTL »

Hello,
Two of them are in system tray:
loc@debian:~$ ps ax | grep blue
613 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/libexec/bluetooth/bluetoothd
2263 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/blueman-applet
2306 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/blueman-tray
2309 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/blueman-tray
2314 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/libexec/bluetooth/obexd
3724 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep blue
loc@debian:~$
Can kill one of them by PID, but I have to do that each time system reboot.

I expect one is a tray notification and the other a panel app. You can hide tray notifications in settings or set Blueman not to appear in the panel, whichever you prefer.

Edit: on closer look, that doesn't explain it - you've shown that both are in the status tray,

Do you have one instance in Session and Startup > Application Autostart?
