There is no tray icon in the upper menu bar. And when I try to start Bitcoin manually via Dashboard, I get this error:

Cannot obtain a lock on data directory /home/michael.heuberger/.bitcoin. Bitcoin is probably already running.

Probably a bug?

what ppa was this installed from? I am running 13.10 on a VM and just tested this using the ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin and started it up with bitcoin-qt without issue. I am also seeing that the bitcoin icon is in the tray and sidebar. The issue is not with the bitcoin client you may need to dig up a bit more information.

Yes, this is a known issue (See #1242), should be fixed in 0.9 release
