How to force "KDED Status Notifier watcher" to run

I had a problem in which the Amarok tray icon was not showing up after upgrading to 2010.1, but this is fixed by launching "Service Manager" and manually starting "KDED Status Notifier watcher". This service is marked to be used, but whenever I log in, it shows up with status "not running."

 

How can I force this service to run when I log in, so that Amarok works as expected?

I'd try having a look at the file: /home/you/.kde4/share/config/kdedrc

 

That file includes these two lines amongst others:

 

[Module-statusnotifierwatcher]

autoload=true

 

Try editing the file (or you could rename it kdedrc.old) then logout and login again. Also I'd check your user has write access to the file.

 

Hope that helps. :)
