Can ~/.cache/efreet be written to? well you ge that because of a timeout in hearing back from efreetd. so during startup e setups up a 10 second timeout in e_startup.c e_startup_mode_set(). that timer is deleted when e gets some feedback back from efreetd which in the same file is _e_startup_event_cb() which listed to the EFREET_EVENT_DESKTOP_CACHE_BUILD event from efreetd. that is not turning up. it should. even if the cache is the same with zero changes, it should report this initially. i can't tell you what is going wrong as you'd need to follow the chain of events as to what is and is not actually happening but i can tell you the above. > I checked, and the answer to both questions is yes.
