I just installed Rox Desktop onto Debian 5. On the session manager screen I have two options for Rox: one labeled Rox and the other Rox-desktop. When I log into either one however the only things that appear are: the home icon on the desktop and panel, plus two more folder icons on the panel: CDROM and hgfs. I think I am missing something. For instance there is no icon for Apps or an icon to end the session on the bottom right. What may I check to troubleshoot this? |

I can't remember what ROX-Session does by default these days, but that might be correct. You should be able to find the Apps directory from Home and drag that and ROX-Session onto the panel... -- Dr Thomas Leonard ROX desktop / Zero Install GPG: 9242 9807 C985 3C07 44A6 8B9A AE07 8280 59A5 3CC1 GPG: DA98 25AE CAD0 8975 7CDA BD8E 0713 3F96 CA74 D8BA |

I can't locate any Rox app folder. All the filer does is browse my linux fs. And since there is no session manager the only way for me to logout is to turn off the power.

How did you install it? If you got it using ROX-All, then it's wherever you unpacked it: http://roscidus.com/desktop/ROX-All Note: You might also be able to log out with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, although some distributions now disable this by default. As a last resort, this key sequence is safer than just turning off the power: Alt+SysRq+S (sync) Alt+SysRq+U (remount filesystems read-only) Alt+SysRq+B (reboot) (SysRq is usually on the same key as PrintSreen) 2010/1/2 Scott Robinson <ahk...@gm...>: > I can't locate any Rox app folder.

First I installed Rox-all through zero-install. I was able to get to the Rox applications via the Gnome desktop. Then I wanted to try the Rox desktop instead. So I installed (or I thought I did) Rox-session through Rox-all in Zero-install, but the Desktop did not seem complete. So I then installed Rox via Synaptic PM. Now I have two sessions on my login screen: Rox and Rox-destop. I am not sure where the App folder is installed by Synaptic. But following the App folder path opened on the Gnome desktop via Zero Install --> manage programs --> Rox-all, it seems that is installed at ~/.cache/ 0install.net/implementations/shalnew=42f......./apps. Does this all sound correct?

That sounds right. You can either drag that directory to the panel (if you want to have a fixed set of applications), or you can put ROX-All itself on the panel (which has the advantage that if a new version is released then you'll automatically get the new version). 2010/1/2 Scott Robinson <ahk...@gm...>: > First I installed Rox-all through zero-install.
