[Mono-winforms-list] Another NotifyIcon Issue

[palamangelus]

I'm having issues with the NotifyIcon, if anyone has a spare moment to offer
some suggestions.

I'm running winXP SP2, with cygwin, mono 1.1.15, gtk#2.8 (also installed
separately). I also have sharpE and aston shell installed (was using them
but the notifyicon code wouldn't work, so I switched back to explorer as my
shell). After having trouble getting gtkSharpNotification to work, I
switched to winforms (very familiar with winforms, and the notification icon
is more than half the project I'm working on (a win32/osX app for internal
purposes).

I pulled out the test case of sw-notifyicon.cs and notify.ico and compiled
them in a cygwin bash window. The test cases ran fine with :
sw-notifyicon.exe, but when I ran it with mono sw-notifyicon.exe (which is
essential since I'll need to get it to run on osX - although macpack won't
work so I can't test) two things happened; 1) the icon didn't appear in the
tray, although a blank area for the icon appeared and was able to react to
events, and 2) the menu failed with the following dump (the first line is
the console.write to the MouseMove event). Any help is appreciated.
