Hello!
Don't know if this is related, but when *I* tried installing Dropbox (from their .deb file), the notification area icon and box didn't work for me, either. Found a permanent fix by editing the Dropbox config file as follows:
In a terminal window [CTRL-ALT-T], type or copy/paste the following:
Create a new line after 'import os' and add the following:
os.environ['DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS'] = ""
Save [CTRL-S] and reboot.

A gun in your hand is worth more than a whole police force on the phone.
