Korganizer launching from system notification tray

I have recently installed Korganizer 4.4.7on Debian stable and so far it does exactly what I want from a calendar/ scheduler application, so kudos for that.

There is one snag however. I prefer to use Gnome as my WM and while Korganizer minimises to the system notification area nicely, I seem unable to relaunch it from there by clicking on it. By "relaunching", I mean bring it back into a non-minimised view so that I can see upcoming appointments or add new ones. If I left click on the tray icon, nothing happens, and if I right click on it I am presented with options about the reminder daemon but nothing to bring the application into a usable state. To do this, I have to select it from the main menu.

Is there a configuration setting that I can adjust to enable this or was it not intended to be triggered from the system tray?

Thanks for any help on this.

The System tray icon you are seeing is the reminder notifier I believe. On my system, clicking it causes KOrganizer to launch however.

Thanks bcooksley, but that doesn't really me out any as the behaviour you describe is what I would expect: click on the icon and the app window should be launched. As this is not happening, is there a config file I can edit or is this a known bug? I couldn't see anything filed, but there again I don't know if my description is sufficiently technically accurate.

Interesting! I had never used it as a launcher, but yes, on my Fedora 14 system it does launch KOrganizer. This looks as though it may be a Debian bug.
