You, Christopher and I had problems with lxpanel.
Forgot ĸen, who was the first to report it, IIRC. Didn't completely
understand "openbox hanging", but think it is the same as described
afterwards.
Christopher, do you remember the tweaks mentioned the other day?
You need to do the following:
cp /etc/xdg/lxpanel/default/panels/panel
/home/cjg/.config/lxpanel/LXDE/panels/panel
This will reset the taskbar to what it was prior to whatever change they
have made in their updates.
Everything just started working for me with this change.
Thanks, Christopher. I had just partially solved, when reading your message.
What I did:
mkdir -vp ~/.config/lxpanel
cp -vr /etc/xdg/lxpanel/profile/LXDE/ ~/.config/lxpanel
Unfortuneately you need to do this for every user that you have created on
your computer. I found this out after switching to my normal account
after I had root account working correctly.
Yes, that was the problem with that solution.
Finally think that the problem is solved.
For reasons that I don't understand, lxpanel's LXDE profile, which
should be default, has been moved away from where it was previously.
This may be related to several modifications they are doing in LXDE, so
some might be buggy: removed code from gnome and redhat from menu-cache,
reason to the necessity of installing libfm-extra. Also, I don't fully
understand yet, but lxpanel has several big modifications (reproduced
after the signature):
http://git.lxde.org/gitweb/?p=lxde/lxpanel.git;a=blob;f=ChangeLog;h=f4704c2be4c44a4570d38ec196a3dc4a9b4cb127;hb=7a5d57c2b3c4e4bfd0cb23ffb373b1d4271a7789
Back to the problem.
When LXDE starts the session, it runs several programs, including the
ones in:
$ cat /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
@lxpanel --profile LXDE
@pcmanfm --desktop --profile LXDE
@xscreensaver -no-splash
where the @ is meant keep the command in the line, if by any chance the
program exits. You can copy the file to user's directory, so to add
programs each user needs individually, on top of that from the system ones:
$ cat ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
...
@/usr/lib/notification-daemon-1.0/notification-daemon
gkrellm
@conky
...
numlockx
...
But I digress.
Problem is that *the profile LXDE is not at the right place*.
Solution:
ln -sv profile/LXDE /etc/xdg/lxpanel/LXDE
I like this one. Simple and clean.
This is what I intend to put in the book, but would be most grateful if
someone or someones could please move out ~/.config, use that command,
start LXDE, then later move back to place the saved ~/.config.
I would do it but I'm in the middle of kde right now.
