Dropbox panel indicator disappears when laptop lid closes and reopens

[ChrisL]

I have experienced the missing Dropbox icon a number of times as well.  Reboot doesn't help.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled (using the Lite Software option) and sometimes that works, sometimes not.  If not, trying it again usually "fixes it" at least for a while; then it reappears (the problem, not the icon).  Going to the menu and clicking on Dropbox (under internet) does nothing.


If I do a search on Dropbox in the LL forum, there are a lot of related threads that come up, but I see not real solutions that work for me. Any thoughts on this, is it an xfce issue?
