Other Help Topics :: Icons gone after install icewm.dsl



I installed icewm.dsl and tinkered with the startup settings. Now i automatically startup with dillo on workspace 3 and Xterm on workspace 2. But my icons are gone! Furthermore i can't seem to start Sylpheed automatically with icewm (it does work manually from xterm)

Also: the programs-menu is empty! (bottom-left of the desktop)

1. offtopic: if you look at the bottom of the "Damsmall linux bord" you can see whos online.  there is also a "view complete list" if you use that you can "spy" on others.

2. can you show (part) of your ~/xinitrc and ~/.icewm/startup ~/.icewm/winoptions ?

3. i will try sylpheed next
<edit>
if added "sylpheed &" to ~/.icewm/startup it starts.

XINITRC
# put X windows programs that you want started here.
# Be sure to add at the end of each command the &
grep enhance /proc/cmdline >/dev/null
if [ $? == 0 ]; then
 enhance &>/dev/null &
fi
#dillo -f /usr/share/doc/damnsmall/getting_started.html &>/dev/null &

ICEWM/WINOPTIONS
# This is an example for IceWM's window options file.
#
# Place your variants in /etc/icewm or in $HOME/.icewm
# since modifications to this file will be discarded when you
# (re)install icewm.

Mozilla.icon: mozicon

xterm.icon: xterm
xterm.workspace:0
dillo.icon: dillo
dillo.workspace:1
sylpheed.icon: sylpheed

ICEWM/START

xset s 300
cd /home/damnsmall
xterm &
dillo &
sylpheed &
emelfm &
#xtdesk &
#rxvt

Sylpheed doesn't startup, sylpheed (on the other hand) does startup....


Capital mistake...

i dont have icons on my desktop to!
But thats on purpose (i cant reach teh if i run all my programs fullscreen)
if you like your icons back, remove the # infront of "xtdesk &"
i wont take your head for the Capital mistake

I've got my icons back! I can't seem to dump any application on workspace 3 ? Can i have more workspaces? (and have my cake AND eat it?)
