Hello !  
I have a problem with the latest iso (mabox-linux-21.02-rc3). The battery icon is black (the rest of the system tray icons are white) and so not visible…

You can see this on this screenshot :

Hi,  
I think icon comes from xfce4-power-manager, don’t know how to change it…

… but you can play with _our beloved tint2_ to try workaround this 😉

Playing with tint2 settings does not resolve the issue. So i had uninstall xfce4-power-manager. The battery module of Tint2 already show the battery status? With no icon but it does the work. So i think that i’ll stay with it. It seems a Xfce4 4-16 issue as i’ve seen some messages about this problem on the Manjaro Forum…
