Thanks for your note. A further debugging inquiry showed me the
source of my problem - it's in StartingAppList::isStarting():

bool StartingAppList::isStarting( const QString name )
{
    if ( appl ) {
        QTime *t  = appl->dict.find( "QPE/Application/" + name );
        if ( !t )
            return FALSE;
        if ( t->elapsed() > 10000 ) {
            // timeout in case of crash or something
            appl->dict.remove( "QPE/Application/" + name );
            return FALSE;
        }
        return TRUE;
    }
    return FALSE;
}

My application parses an xml tree before firing up the GUI - which
can take more than 10 seconds - and in this case, the icon will not
show up.

Yours,
