    AWN problem

    Running AWN in Hardy with all updates. I can't seem to get it to keep the Firefox Icon on the tray. I have tried dragging one from the desktop, and also adding a launcher from the preferences menu. I add it (from either method), do a refresh and try it out. It works fine. I then close awn and restart it through the run menu and it is still there. If, however, I reboot the system, no more Firefox, even though I see it in the preferences menu. The other icons seem to stay OK.

    Any idea what to check?

    I had the same problem in Gutsy. Just upgraded to Hardy and haven't been able to install it yet. Any pointers?

    I installed awn 0.3.1 from the repo:
    Code:
    deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/reacocard-awn/ubuntu hardy main
    I can add launchers but I've got some other troubles...

    Re: AWN problem

    I'm having the same problems over here. I can add applets but not launchers. If I drag launchers from the desktop to the awn bar they will not stick when I reboot my laptop, and creating launchers from awn manager doesn't work either - nothing gets added to the bar when I add them in the manager.

    Anyone with a clue?

    start awn-manager.
    exit awn.
    Remove the Launcher/Taskmanager applet if it is present
    Add the Launcher/Taskmanager applet.
    start awn.

    Re: AWN problem

    That didn't help, unfortunately. Running Hardy if that makes any difference. Thank you for your reply, though!

    My suggestion:

    1) If you're using the "official" Ubuntu packages you might want to try installing either the from the awn-testing ppa ( http://wiki.awn-project.org/Distribu...ackage_Archive ) or from reacocard's ppa (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...&highlight=awn )

    2) If you're already using one of those ppa's then I'd suggest: a) if using awn-testing open a bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/awn b) if using reacocard's post on the support thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...&highlight=awn

    And double check that the Launcer/Taskmanager applet is among the installed applets list in awn-manager
