I have a symbol in my panel add the following to /etc/matchbox/session

matchbox-panel-2 --start-applets systray,startup \
  --end-applets 
openmoko-panel-clock,keyboard,openmoko-panel-battery,openmoko-panel-gsm,openmoko-panel-gps,openmoko-panel-usb,openmoko-p
anel-bt,openmoko-panel-memory,openmoko-panel-wifi --titlebar &

after that you have to restart the x-server and look what's new ;-)
