How strange, running '/usr/lib/deskbar-applet/deskbar-applet -w' works fine, no problems at all. Then I launched it in a terminal, and proceeded to add it to the panel. It failed twice, and the third time I pressed "reload" it appeared in the panel, and it works. There is one worrying error message in the terminal though: (deskbar-applet:4270): Bonobo-WARNING **: Never got frame, control died - abnormal exit condition Now I have to see whether it stays there when I log out and back in again... /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus@therning.org Jabber: magnus@therning.org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
