Xfce problems with task bar and xfce-panel
Hello there
I just installed the xfce desktop and installed the xfce4 components, when I try to run the xfce4-panel I get the following error Your window manager does not seem to support the new window manager hints as defined on http://www.freedesktop.org. Some XFce features may not work as intended. I believe I may be missing some packages, but I have been checking and everything seemes to be installed. The panel starts though, but I want to know how can I eliminate that error and hoy I can eliminate the previous taskbar. Thanks |

Are you running the following in .xinitrc (or what ever you use to start your x session)? xfce-mcs-manager xfwm4 --daemon xftaskbar4 & xfdesktop & exec xfce4-panel |
Heeyy thanks, I did as you said, and I choose xsession to start from the menu and got it all working
Now I got a weird question, I added to the xfce4 taskbar the show desktop button, I can't remove it, any ideas? I added and removed many other things but this one I could not remove. And the other question, how do I add the kde menu ? Thanks in advance |
hey!
I had the same problem as you with the show desktop buttons. I googled to fins a solution, but didn't find any. I figured it out, though, and then i rememberred reading this post. If you still want to remove the Show Desktop Buttons and have been unable, here's the solution: edit ~/.xfce4/xfce4rc simply remove this snippet of code. Code:
restart the wm or do an xkill on the panel to force the panel to be reloaded. Cheers! |
Hi, I have a problem with xfce..
I'm on ubuntu dapper and I installed xfce using apt, but when I launch xfce session some panels are missing. I can't see sistray panel and taskbar panel...It's so strange, because I got installed all required packages, and panels I can't see are xfce's default panels. Please help me... |
