  1. Possible duplicate of How do I remove/disable the Chrome/Chromium notification-center system indicator?

    Shortly, try this.

    Open the URL chrome://flags in the browser.

    Now disable these flags:

    • #enable-sync-synced-notifications
    • #enable-google-now
    • #device-discovery-notifications
    • #enable-experimental-notification-ui (Chrome/Chromium 34 only)

    Click the restart button at the bottom of the site.

  2. On my Xubuntu I right-clicked on xfce4-indicator-plugin then clicked on Settings and there is something like Remove Known Indicators. I have system in different language so it could be named differently. But actially I dont use xfce4-indicator-plugin at all so be careful it can remove something else too.
