[Software] Gnome - Dropbox

#1 Post by alfa71omega »

Hi all, thanks in advance for the help.
I'm using Debian 12 with Gnome alongside Plasma.
While on Plasma I can see all the process in the system tray, in Gnome I can't see anything.
As an example, I can't see the status of dropbox or nordVPN. This is something that make nervous because I don't know if a file on witch I worked on has been synchronized or the status of my connection.
Thanks!

That can be accomplished by using dropbox setting or nautilus-dropbox assuming you don't feel like using dropbox status in a terminal window.

The AppIndicator and KStatusNotifierItem extension for GNOME should solve your problem, but depending on what version or distro is being used, you may have to restart extensions at every login.
