I have just installed Tint2 in my intrepid by This (http://www.webupd8.org/2009/09/how-to-install-and-configure-tint2.html) method.

I found there is something called 'Systray' .. But it is not showing in my taskbar, although 'show systray' is clicked.

What actually it is? Wd it show the applications running currently in my computer? Why it is not showing? Please help .. :confused:

first check if you have systray = 1 option in config file.

then try to run tint2 in terminal.
if you have "systray already running" you have a conflict with your systray in gnome panel.

no dock in tint2.
tint2 is done mainly for *box window manager (openbox, fluxbox, xfce, ...).
using the right clic to open WM's menu is our way :)

you can use wm_menu = 1 option and tint2 open WM's menu everywhere in the panel.

Have a look at the Openbox guide linked to in my signature. It might help you get started.

Thanks urukrama .. surely I will ..

And another thing I forgot to tell .. I am having problem in maximising windows from tint2 .. is there a bug? Sometimes it maximise, sometimes doesn't. Any way to fix it?

How does it *not* maximise?


Also, I recommend Nitrogen and XCompMgr. ;)

By 'not maximise' I mean, when all the windows are minimised, if I click a particular one on the tint2 panel to maximise it .. sometime it works, sometimes doesn't.

Thans for your recomendations. I will give it a look for sure.

hi,
I installed tint2 with fluxbox. I want a menu while I'll right click on certain task just like what we usually have in ubuntu panel. Setting wm_menu=1 makes the window manager menu coming, but I didnt want that. Can anybody help?
