Dunno why? Probly somethin dumb and simple I'm missing. <SNIP> Hi Tom, I've been meaning to thank you for posting this a while ago, and wanted to let you know that I found a quick work around for not placing the gkrellm notification on the panel. I navigated to /home/<acct>/.kde/Autostart in Konqueror, right clicked and selected create new link to application, named it gkstart, and on the execute tab under command just copied, and pasted your line above ... /usr/bin/kstart --ontop --alldesktops --skiptaskbar /usr/X11R6/bin/gkrellm And, it works like a champ - thank you for the tip.
