Autostarting Wbar (Solved)

Post by jasmac »

Hi all, I have installed wbar but cannot seem to get it added to autostart. When I use the wbar util facility it adds it to autostart but does not work. I was wondering if anyone else has installed this and if I can get a remedy to my problem. Thanking you in advance

Cheers

Jason

I see that people have problems with wbar
In XFCE you have
mintConfig > Autostarted applications
Try to add it there

Thanks for the replies, I have tried using both the mintconfig autostart and using the wbar.util that has the option of adding it to autostart applications. Neither seem to work, and both have the above desk option. When I manually add it to autostarted applications I am using the wbar launcher that is found in /usr/share/bin, and I have tried the .wbar that is in my home. Is there another path I should be using? In the meantime I am going to give the cairo bar a go. Normally I use awn but seeing as I am using a lower spec machine now and compisiting does not work that well I am trying a number of different docks that are on offer out there. Thanks again for your help.

Cheers

Hey ossified65. thanks but I finally figured it out. I used the wbar.util app and this time I made sure that I saved it correctly, that being as .wbar in my /home, and hey presto it worked. Now I can have some fun figuring out how to configure it the way I like.
