I would think so too.  But that would probably have been
more difficult and taken longer because jugg seems to
always "misunderstand" me.

As for popup2, it sounds like the problem is with your
desktop module. Are you using the lsdev version?

As for systray, retro doesn't run your autostart programs.
So it might not have any icons to show.
Try running a program that has a "Minimize to
Systray" feature, and see what happens when
you do that.

Now if you want your startup items run, you'll
have to compile lsexsh32.dll yourself (or
ask someone to do it for you).
Then LoadModule it very early.
(Except you also compiled lsapi.dll
with LSEXSH32_IS_NOT_GPL #defined)
Of course, that will change very soon...
Why so difficult you ask? Because according to
the GPL it might be an illegal thing to do.
See ./doc/legalese.html.

Unfortuntely, you don't give any info about the version
numbers of your modules and operating system.
So I can't really look into why it doesn't work.

You can copy and paste from the !about dialog.
You can also look under "Log" if there are any
error messages there.
If you would like the stated problems resolved,
please to send more info.

But I can tell you that the Modules that come with LsDistro
should work as expected with litestep b24.6.

Would be nice if you said what those where...

a lot doesn't hapen on that list - I would prefer talking
