[solved] icewm + icedock


Hello everybody

I have icewm installed, and I wanted to use windowmaker dockapps with it. I searced a little and I found icedock - a program that will let me group my dockapps wherever I want to.

I installed and configured icedock, however there is a problem.

This is the list of dockapps I want to use:
wmcpuload
wmmemload -b -c
wmnd -i eth0
wmmount
wmtop -a 4
wmweather -s LRBS -m --lcd
wmxmms
wmmixer
wmShutdown

When icedock starts, it displays all, but wmmount and wmmixer. wmmount and wmmixer do start, but they have the usual window decoartions and other positions on the screen.
I've seen wmmixer working in the screenshot of the icedock project, so I don't understand why it won't work here.

If anywone has suggestions, I'm eager to listen.

I got it sorted out... This is if anyone is interested:

It seems that wmmount and wmmixer need an extra parameter to start up docked (I checked the man page).

This is what I wrote down in .icedockrc:

Code:
...
client=wmmount -- -w
client=wmmixer -withdrawn
...
and this did the trick!

Hope it prooves usefull to somebody else...
