Topic: New Statler Xfce install won't let me add Panel.

Hi, all.

I've just done a fresh Statler Xfce install, and I'm very pleased with it.  Unfortunately, I get the 'pager' at the bottom of the screen and no-matter how I try, I can't add a panel, instead.

If I try

xfce-panel &

from a terminal, I get a warning about a notifier already running and then the panel starts (on top of my pager).

Is this a bug or am I missing something; I really miss my panel?

\! looking good apart from this and mis-mapped en-gb keyboard.

Any help appreciated.

Cheers,

Chris.

Re: New Statler Xfce install won't let me add Panel.

Alt-f2 and run

pkill tint2

then again in an alt-f2 prompt

xfce4-panel

to make this permanent - in ~/.config/xfce4/autostart.sh change this

killall xfce4-panel &
tint2 &

to this

xfce4-panel &
