Topic: notification area on Open box Ubuntu
Good day sir...
I'm editing my autostart.sh on my Ubuntu 9.10 open-box...
How can I start the notification area just like on the crunchbang desktop....
Thanks in Advance...
Re: notification area on Open box Ubuntu
Crunchbang panel is tint2, but if you just want a notification area I suggest stalonetray.

Just add "tint2 &" to your autostart.sh?
Also check your ~/.config/tint2/tint2rc file and make sure "systray" is set to 1.
And one last thing, if you start tint2 after your apps, any tray icons you have won't show up; you'll have to restart those apps.

Do I need to install "trayer" or "systray"??

to run tint2? no. tint2 already have his own systray.
trayer is an alternative systray just like the stalonetray I have suggested before. it is only the notification area, it does not list your running windows like tint2.
can you post your ~/.config/tint2/tint2rc file?
Re: notification area on Open box Ubuntu
I edited my tintrc and put this line
systray = 1
run tint on my terminal just to check but there is an erron
Invalid option: "systray", correct your config filetint run but no systray...

Make sure you installed tint2 not tint. Also you can just grab tint2 from this PPA:

Re: notification area on Open box Ubuntu
since april 2009 tint have to change name to tint2.
because another package in debian use already the name tint (it's a tetris game).

^ No, you use `tint2`.
