What steps will reproduce the problem?
Try to install using .deb package - seems to install fine, but nothing happens 
when you try to start the program.

Alternate way to reproduce problem: Uninstall, then use manual method to 
install by adding source and using apt-get. Once again, select app and nothing 
happens.

Alternate alternate way:
Attempt to run from command line
~$ android-notifier-desktop
android-notifier-desktop: command not found

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect it to start, nothing happens.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
android-notifier-desktop (0.5.1-0)
Ubuntu 11.04 Unity

Please provide the log output if possible (from the alogcat app on android,
Show Log menu on the multiplatform client, or Console on native mac app):
No logs, b/c wont start.

Please provide any additional information below.
If this is a know issue, it would be great if there was a clear message on the 
home page that this does not work on Unity 11.04.

UPDATE - while nothing appears to happen, it seems to be running, b/c I went 
ahead and sent a test notification from my phone and it popped up a 
notification on my desktop. There is no way to interact with the desktop app 
that I can see. Sounds like there is a known issue with Unity, from a previous 
issue, but there was no posted resolution, so again, if the app does not 
support Unity, it should be clearly described to save people from wasting their 
time.

You need to whitelist the application in the notification area i.e.

$ gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist 
"['JavaEmbeddedFrame', 'Wine', 'Skype', 'hp-systray', 'YOUR_APPLICATION']"

and what would be "YOUR_APPLICATION" here? it is a java app, so we may guess it 
should work with JavaEmbeddedFrame or java.
I did add java and saw nothing new.
