Bug#545817: gnome-panel: window-list applet does not restore minimized java windows

[Bernhard Kuemel]

Package: gnome-panel
Version: 2.24.3-1+b1
Severity: normal


The window-list applet often does not restore minimized java windows. 
E.g. log into http://www2.superchat.at with iceweasel and minimize a chat room or 
private conversation window. Sometimes frequent clicking on the 
windows button in the window list will restore it, but often the window 
is lost.

There was a box with icons of mimimized windows which restores 
mimimized windows reliably, but I closed it and don't know how to get 
it back.
