Steps to reproduce the problem

• I downloaded the ISO a second time and made the checksum
• I completely reinstall 3 times KaOs. it's always same.
  In first test , i install Kaos, remove some things, do update, add software and no Octopi-Notifier
  In the second test , i install Kaos minimal, in first boot, i do update, and after I started Octopi-Notifier
  In last test, i install Kaos minimal, in first boot, before doing anything, I started Octopi-Notifier

Not an issue for main, but will leave it here for now, this is clearly about applications, so needs to be under Apps:
https://github.com/KaOSx/apps/issues

Does the octopi-notifier show in Live mode? Does it show on first boot into new install?
If so, then what theme is in use after the update and the notifier no longer showing? Is it a matter of no icon for the notifier, so just an empty space in the panel?

[Astate]

After the installation I closed Crosedo without modifying anything and I tested the notification problem.
This is not only a problem with Octopi, I had the same problem with the Flatpak client NextCloud application.
it's not only probleme of icons, i dont have empty space.

Asking one more time, did you have the issue in live mode? Did you have the issue on booting into the new install? So before updating/installing anything. Flatpak is not part of a default install.

Flatpak is not part of a default install. it's because i wanted to tell you that it is not only Octopi who is in a problem. I could easily do tests with Octopi via a fresh installation

What happens if you don't use the the autostart .desktop file, but start the notifier manually?

killall octopi-notifier

/usb/bin/octopi-notifier

[Astate]

it's work when i start it manualy

[demmm]

One more killall octopi-notifier, and now start it from the menu.

[Astate]

it's also work.

[demmm]

OK, so the bug is in either autostart or the .desktop file set in autostart

[Astate]

It also explains the problem of NextCloud-Client I also added in "Automatic start" in Config Panel

[demmm]

I can replicate with a new entry in autostart (used stacer), it runs on reboot, but no systemtray entry (it does have an empty space, but not clickable), so it is an autostart issue.
I'll have to check upstream bug reports for this (or you can help), this most probably is not a packaging issue but rather an upstream bug. KaOS can only correct packaging issues for bugs, not correct bugs in code.

[Astate]

thank you for your work !

Looks like it is /was kdeconnect-kde blocking any sni during startup, removing kdeconnect-kde fixes autostart apps.
Removing was needed for the RC2 currently in stable, testing the final Megarelease here now with kdeconnect-kde 24.02.0 has the fix.
Issue will be closed once 24.02 is released next week.

Could this be only on older/slower machines. I have and an older PC and cannot get the problem to arise, no matter how many times I reboot or whatever theme I use. Two separate installations. It fails on both my fast Intel PCs.
Just a thought.

[demmm]

Please check again after Wednesday. Then Megarelease final will become available to all users. Here on early testing of that release, issue is gone.

[Astate]

Yes issue is gone with update !
