xfce4-panel is similarly awesome, and has the added advantage of having its edges detected so that window resizes or maximizes don't ignore it and go beyond its borders. request 1776926 would bring fbpanel on par with xfce4-panel.

I've used it with blackbox, xfwm, openbox, etc. It's wonderful. It's also the only KDE-compatible tray which I've seen.

• It's included in PCLinuxOS' repository now. Cool. But it needs fbpanel genmon!

[edit] notes from the author

fbpanel supports fredesktop.org tray spec only. imho, kde apps use different protocol (at least old one).

So they should not show up - they are not supported.

But to be sure that it is not fbpanel's bug try gnome-panel or sfce4-panel - they both use fredesktop spec only.
