This looks really ugly. I have klipper, kmix, knetwork-manager, amarok and pidgin running in my system tray always. The problem is that these icons have a white background and it looks very very ugly especially when you change the desktop theme to something that is darkish (like the oxygen theme with black background). Is there a fix for this?
I am on openSUSE 11.0 with KDE-4.1 with the latest updates installed from the factory. Any help is appreciated.

actually as far as i know there isn’t a work around or a fix for this yet
I am not sure if I agree with that. I see a lot of screenshots where the system tray icons are transparent. For example look at the October screenshots.

I have no clue how they have transparent icons on the system tray. Any help appreciated.
well sometimes they are sometimes there not if you really want to know the truth
Plus it my have to do with the theme your using i know if i change to a grey theme like aya they look pretty ugly
Some troubles are due to workarounds in the code that would otherwise make GTK+ applications crash (due to a bug in GTK+). A new and all improved systray is under development and will be in KDE 4.2.
