Yesterday i reinstall openSUSE 11.0 on my office PC with gnome and then install KDE4.2.2 from Yast.
But after logging to KDE desktop, i found that system tray icons are missing. I faced this problem before too, but did not find any solution for it that time.
Yesterday i searched about this issue, and found that, we have to update libqt4.4.0 to libqt4.4.3.
So the simple solution was that, to upgrade the libqt to update version to work with KDE4.2.2.
The update process is easy, open yast->software management and search for libqt. But for the latest libqt you have to add repo. so 1st add this repo to repo list.
For openSUSE11.0: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Qt44/openSUSE_11.0/
For openSUSE11.1: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Qt44/openSUSE_11.1/
For openSUSE10.3: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Qt44/openSUSE_10.3/
Now, install the update version, which i think will be libqt4.4.3, and that's it.
Here is the sample of the issue:
