Fusion-Icon does not show up in system tray

I can't find a solution for my problem online:

I'm running Unity 2D in Ubuntu 11.10 and want to enable compiz effects. I installed compiz config settings manager, and Fusion-Icon, but when I start Fusion-Icon nothing happens. When I execute it from terminal it stucks at lines like "setting update 'command'" or "setting update 'next_key'"

I already set the whitelist for the panel to 'all'.

Anyone knows what I'm missing?
Thanks in advance!

Try Displex. It provides the same options as the Fusion Icon, and works with Unity/AppIndicators.

(It will also work in most other desktop environments where you can run compiz).

Note, if it does not run try the following:

I installed the deb and tried starting DisPlex from the app menu but nothing

happened. So I ran "indicator-displex" from terminal. At some point it showed

"Value error: gconf key /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop has no value"

so I had to manually add a value and typed

gconftool-2 --set "/apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop" --type bool true

ran it again and got the same error for

/apps/gnome-screensaver/idle_activation_enabled,

so the same procedure and that was it.
