Description:
gnome-do-0.8.0-2 upon new login or reboot forgets all its settings. This means, I'm presented with the default theme when I summon gnome-do after login and there is not Docky even though I set Docky as the theme. When I klik the tray icon and click settings it tells me the current theme is docky however the docky only appears when I "killall gnome-do && gnome-do &". Additional info: * package version(s) gnome-do-0.8.0-2 * config and/or log files etc. Steps to reproduce: Tell gnome-do te auto-start, set theme to docky and reboot, see if you get the docky. |

Have you checked how your autostart command looks like? Maybe it has a command-line option appended? (From using previous versions?)
My start command is also just "gnome-do", not sure why it does not work for you though.
Thanx for the help, anyways.
iirc I read about some troubles in various blogs concerning compiz+Do.
Maybe just try with Metacity?
I use compiz.
sudo killall gnome-do
sudo pacman -R gnome-do
rm -r ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-do
rm -r ~/.local/share/gnome-do
sudo pacman -S gnome-do
Edit: using pacman instead of apt-get - Allan
Thanx for the suggestion though.
Upstream bug ;)
So it's probably already file (multiple times) on launchpad.
Actually I found only one file ;)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/do/+bug/324332
As it says it's probably because of gnome-do starting before compiz, not detecting compositing and reverting skin to classic :)
Now it looks like this:
#!/bin/sh
# added this sleep line so gnome-do waits for compiz to load.
sleep 5
SCRIPT_PATH=`dirname $0`
SCRIPT_PATH=`cd $SCRIPT_PATH; pwd`
if [ "x$SCRI ...
and so on.
Thanx for all your help guys!
(for those who don't know, sleep freezes the script for 5 sec.)
