OpenBox and tint2 and wbar.

[valsorym]

Hi all.
I used OpenBox and tint2 and wbar.
But as they run together?
I run OpenBox. After that, run the console and

# wbar &

Then run the tint

# tint2
real transparency off .... depth: 24
xRandr: Found crtc's: 2
xRandr: Linking output LVDS with crtc 0
usage: tint2 [-c] <config_file>
[2] + Exit 1

What is <config_file> in

...
usage: tint2 [-c] <config_file>
..

How do I run it together?

Put that in your ~/.config/autostart.sh

Thanks, I create ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh

#!/bin/sh
#. . . 

wbar &
# End file.

# chmod 555 autostart.sh
# shutdown –r now

Reboot my PC. And start X, again. wbar ran but in window <NONAME>… No correct ran.
And what about tint2?

 

[LateNiteTV]

something like

wbar & (sleep 3 && tint2)

Runs "wbar", so far so good. After (approximately) 10 seconds, a frame around the "wbar".
By clicking on the box "wbar" - it disappears.
"tint2" does not start.

You need to create tint2 config, its not something that will start/run without it.

Doesn't tint2 have a default global config that it uses? Or am I smoking crack again?

The tint2 developers wiki is helpful and has some example tint2rc filesTint2_Configure

Solution found.

Check /usr/local/share/exemple/tint2/.

The reason for launching "wbar" in the window:

# wbar-config

Go to the tab "Preferences" and uncheck:
Run over the desktop
Sorry me.
Thank you all.

Thanks. I created folder ~/.config/tint2. And created tint2rc in this folder (http://code.google.com/p/tint2/wiki/Configure)

But thanks.

Seems I was too late. Just a few useful links:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Openbox
http://crunchbanglinux.org/wiki/tint2
http://crunchbanglinux.org/wiki/howto/autostart_programs

Sometimes(always) it is useful to read install notice , e.g.:

 pkg_info -Dx wbar
Information for wbar-1.3.3_4:

Install notice:

*************************************************

    Copy
    
        /usr/local/share/wbar/dot.wbar to ${HOME}/.wbar

    or run the program with

        wbar -config /usr/local/share/wbar/dot.wbar

*************************************************

Also feel free to look at output from :

wbar --help

For example , my autostart.sh looks like:

..
tint2 &
(sleep 2 && wbar -vbar -pos left -nofont -jumpf 0.0 -idist 10) &
..

If you are interested my tint2rc is here.
