I just had a look into this. I have no simple idea to make it better.
The Makefile runs make commands for every sub-project, thus the main
Makefile does not have to know anything about the sub-projects
Makefiles. Change detection "works" in the way that nothing is actually
build, but does not work because all sub-makes are executed.

Rats. I thought i had that, but apparently i don't :)
I have a look at it as soon as i have time (probably a week or so). The
whole systray thing is pretty tough, i seem to be unable to find good
documentation ("good" as in good enough for me).

However, when I changed this in order to launch after the window manager which runs the system tray, this error does not appear and everything works as expected. Could this be something to do with incorrectly waiting for a system tray to be available? Do you definitely have a window manager which supports a system tray running?

Re: [dev] I made a bluetooth-control-thing
Thanks a lot for this! I have switched to using it instead of blueman-applet and it works great so far. The simple UI is so much better than the maze of a menu that blueman seems to have. I love it! Other than the criticisms mentioned by the other guy in the first reply, I would ask if there is a way I can enlarge the icon in my system tray slightly. Currently, I can only just about see it, which is fine, but it would be nice if I could see it more easily. Thanks again, this is a fantastic tool.

I just like to > use it :) Hi, There is something wrong with the makefile because each time I type make it keeps rebuilding everything. Otherwise, I wanted to test but it exits with: $ lbm X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 15 (X_QueryTree) Resource id in failed request: 0x0 Serial number of failed request: 12 Current serial number in output stream: 12 Regards, -- David
