Hello all,

I am trying to get the Quick launch bar widget found here,
http://awesome.naquadah.org/wiki/Quick_launch_bar_widget, working under
Awesome 3.4.  I have an older version of this working with the same version
of Awesome on a different box that I don't have easy access to at the
moment so grabbing that version is not really an option.  I copied
everything into my rc.lua file, and I changed the filedir variable to point
to the correct version.  The issue is that when I reloaded Awesome there is
no icons.  Starting Awesome under a Xephyr session I don't see any errors
about it, and my rc.lua script passes the syntax check and everything else
works no problem.

I did try uncommenting the four lines in the last for loop to see if that
was it, but sadly all that did was produce this error:

/home/vendion/.config/awesome/rc.lua.test:378: attempt to index field '?'
(a nil value)

Commenting the lines again removes the error.  For the obvious question
that I for see coming, yes the directory I have it pointing to has .desktop
files



> ls Desktop/
amarok.desktop*   google-chrome.desktop*  Kontact.desktop*
dolphin.desktop*  kate.desktop*           seamonkey.desktop*
firefox.desktop*  konqbrowser.desktop*    startcenter.desktop*
