SkypeTab and single-instance

[freeq]

Skypetab-ng not cooperate with script for skype-single-instance.

!/usr/bin/env python

import dbus import sys import os

try:

Try and set skype window to normal

remote_bus = dbus.SessionBus()
out_connection = remote_bus.get_object('com.Skype.API', '/com/Skype')
out_connection.Invoke('NAME mySkypeController')
out_connection.Invoke('PROTOCOL 5')
#out_connection.Invoke('SET WINDOWSTATE MAXIMIZED')
out_connection.Invoke('SET WINDOWSTATE NORMAL')
out_connection.Invoke('FOCUS')

except: os.system("skypetab-ng") sys.exit()

I change os.system("skype") to os.system("skypetab-ng") and now is working in half thats mean i have only single instance but after minimized to systray and click on icon at unity panel windows does not appear. Anyone know how to deal with it why skypetab dont use api to set windowstate normal and focused?

I try to strace that and output looks like this:

Just get rid of that script and use "Activate previous instance" in SkypeTab's settings (systray menu->SkypeTab->Settings).
