ksimond under Intrepid Ibex

A few days ago, I made a fresh installation of Ubuntu 8.10 on an exchangeable hard drive. The reason is that I couldn’t see the ksimond (or simond?) tray icon on the top right corner of the standard Ubuntu screen. I think that the reason is some kind of misconfiguration of my Ubuntu 8.10 desktop. But I don’t know how to fix this issue. So I decided to make a fresh installation.

A few minutes ago, I downloaded and installed simon-0.2-beta-1-Linux.deb. When I select the menu Applications > Universal Access > ksimond, I am able to see the ksimond tray icon on the top right of the Ubuntu 8.10 screen:

ksimond under Intrepid Ibex
Configure – ksimond

There is an error message that the shared library libsimondsettings was not found. Now I start simon via the menu Applications > Universal Access > simon. Then I quit ksimond. I have to confirm that I am sure that I want to quit ksimond. Then I restart ksimond. But the message that the library libsimondsettings was not found, appears again.

I would like to configure a password and a username with ksimond. But at the moment, this is not possible. Under Win XP, it was possible. Why not under Ubuntu? I hope that will figure that out later.
