LXDE - Lightweight X Desktop Environment

Force of habit on my part. I'm not actually sure if it's necessary when 
you're using SIGKILL.

Other signals are can be caught, so it's possible that applications 
receiving things like SIGTERM and SIGINT might not have died before 
killall exits.

In this case your command is probably "lxpanel --profile LXDE". It will
stay in the foreground, so you can hit Ctrl+C in that terminal when the
panel freezes, and then start lxpanel again.

You can get the list of defined profiles by checking
"ls ~/.config/lxpanel/" in a terminal.

Wow! Awesome! Two remarks for now:

a) I immediately hit a bug in the thermal plugin that was fixed 5
commits after the point you chose to rebase on. (This is my own fault, I
know!) Would be great if you could rebase it on an even more recent
master.

b) The lxpanelx branch and commit ab2b8cbefb in current master have
different fixes for the same problem. I think that the fix in the
mentioned commit is the correct fix. Not sure how to go about this. What
do you think?

I just noticed I didn't reply to everything. Sorry about that. (I didn't 
get much sleep last night)

I've added the missed replies inline.

No argument there but, as a workaround, you could do what I did and make 
~/.config/lxpanel/Lubuntu a symlink to ~/.config/lxpanel/LXDE and do 
similar things for the other components like openbox and lxsession.

Not the Kuake program for KDE. The "kuake" plugin included as part of 
any urxvt (rxvt-unicode) build which enabled the Perl plugin API at 
compile time.

It's a simple little perl script that uses urxvt's plugin API to set up 
a borderless terminal window positioned top-center on your screen and 
binds a hotkey to hide/show it so you can run it on login and leave it 
around.

When your panel freezes, that's probably the simplest way to run a 
restart script and urxvt is the lightest way you'll get that to work.

(It competes with xterm for users. Both urxvt and xterm are lighter than 
lxterminal and provide a more featureful terminal emulation but you have 
to customize them by hand-editing ~/.Xresources and the config docs are 
archaic)

A /fresh/ rebase would be the best thing for me; sorry. I can try to get
things going and so on but I can not follow C code and any breakage in
the build is pretty much a guarantee for a complete halt for me.

I would be happy to help with getting the things into the lxpanel master.

My first priority for now is to solve my build issue on debian testing
and as I can not follow the code and am not very skilled in build things
at all this might very well be a stopper for a long time.
Any help is appreciated; will install a new clean environment to make
sure it is not because of left over files and stuff as proposed in
another part of the thread.

I've succesfully built lxpanel yesterday from git master on Lubuntu 
12.04 (alpha 1), it's your build system I think.
A problem of dependencies in some ".la" files, some files that are no 
longer needed but have a wrong dependency.

Dear list members, dear Julien,

although I haven't received much feedback on this patch, I do think it
fixes the issue mentioned in this thread, and in any case it does fix an
issue I could reproduce on my machine, and I found basically the same
fix in the lxpanelx branch, so please consider merging the gtk2-fixes
branch from my usual place:

    git://github.com/hsgg/lxpanel.git

I hope I used the correct URL this time. :)

Thank you,

Henry

I confirm. If I close the tabs in the same order I have opened them, the
freeze occurrences greatly decease. I have tried with LibreOffice. I
have also re-enabled Firefox icon to show up in the panel. It did not
work so well in this case. Firefox main window, the download window and
the browser window, they all open a separate tab in the lxpanel, and
it's difficult to follow the order.

Sorry about that. I got a few messages with the list's address on the
Cc: field and the sender's address on the From: field . By force of
habit, I clicked "answer to the list" icon. It only reply with the
address in the "To:" field. I will answer to all from now.

I pass the 2 commands several times a day when a panel freeze occurs

$ killall -9 lxpanel
$ lxpanel -- profile LXDE&

I have to keep a bash window open in permanence. I often close it by
mistake. It terminates the panel... I can not launch bash again using
Ctrl+F2. It's a small annoyance.

If I could keep a file on my desktop (a script) and simply click on it
when a freeze occur, it would help.

Could somebody on the list, with basic shell scripting knowlege, write
a simple script to run the two commands above, if possible in the
background (i.e. without opening a shell window). That would be nice.

This should work :

#!/bin/sh

killall -9 lxpanel
lxpanel --profile Lubuntu &


Save that to a file, change the profile name if needed (LXDE, 
Lubuntu....) set the file as executable.

:D

Thank you Axel. I though the script needed some arguments to define
the order to run the commands, and more arguments to run in the
background. As soon as (if) I can, I will read a bash tutorial.

How about fixing this part with libwnck?
Previously lxpanel did some dirty Xlib stuff inside tasklist.c.
Since the latest lxpanel already uses a small part of libwnck, I think it's
a good idea to fix this part with libwnck instead of touch Xlib low level
stuff ourselves.

In the new lxpanel2, I already start using libwnck 3.0 and it works very
well.
BTW, a very primitive version of lxpanel2 might be available soon.
However, gtk3 is quite different from gtk2 in some ways, especially the
widget geometry handling. I'm still learning about that part and will put
lxpanel2 online when it's usable.

Using vala indeed makes development faster and easier, but due to various
bugs of vala, it sometimes generates wrong C code which does not compile.
So, it's not a silver bullet, either. :-)

I have the same troubles with Gtk3, it's good to read this, so it's not 
just me. :-D

I've also done an experimental panel, I use libmenu-cache, libwnck3, 
I've stolen the system tray from Gnome Panel,
from libunity-misc in fact : 
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-team/libunity-misc/trunk/files/head:/unity-misc/ 
<http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Eunity-team/libunity-misc/trunk/files/head:/unity-misc/>
I also use gnome-sound-applet and indicator-multiload.

Amusing. :)

About how long does it take for the fix to be available in the main LXDE
distributions (Fedora, Lubuntu, etc)? Thank you.

Hi,

FYI, at PCLinuxOS we have 2 PCLinuxOS Lxde versions, one full and one mini, two Openbox
almost standalone, one full and one of the type Education (educational games) using
Lxpanel, and no Lxpanel crash of freeze reported that I know of at the forum during the
last months, and at least since we had the actual release :

lxpanel-0.5.8-2pclos2011.i586.rpm  30-Aug-2011 00:32 454K . 

Many people use either one or the other flavor, I am pretty sure I would have noticed if
we met such an issue, especially since we have forums dedicated to the different pclinuxos
flavors and I visit them regularly. I have put up the Openbox with Lxpanel versions
myself, and tested them plus had quite a bunch of people testing them directly on the
forum for a while before it was uploaded to the repositories or for the latest ones
declared good for all by the testers.

Is it possible to figure out why some meet with issues in one distribution and
users in another don't ?

To the persons who met with crashes or freezes : have you had a look at the file
~/.xsession-errors just after the issue arise or if you don't have one did you manage to
have a command likely to generate one ? From within ~/.xinitrc for instance ?

Regards,
Mélodie

Hello Melodie,
.xsession-errors attached. Just before the end of file, a freeze has
occurred, and I had to restart the panel. Do you see something relevant?

The only recurrent error msg I see when I start the panel from the
shell is:

** (lxpanel:1304): WARNING **: Group count mismatch, ctrls = 2, groups
= 2, symbols = 4

I see only that message which seems relevant in the log you sent. Have you tried to
search the web with this error message ? And or move the lxpanel configuration files out
of the way and restart lxpanel ?

Else, I see many messages of all kinds in your .xesssion-error files. Could you remind me
what distro you use ? And also say if you have third party applications installed ? And
or third party repositories used ?

Regards,
Mélodie

hello Melodie,
Yes, it's documented here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=710496

I use vanilla Fedora 15 LXDE Spin. No third party repository, but RPM
fusion and Flash installed.
