Fbpanel

From Arnout Engelen

fbpanel is a nice 'panel' application like the gnome-panel.

[edit] fbpanel and ion3

By default, fbpanel and your ion3 panels seem to 'overlap' a bit.

Fixed this by changing 'floating' to 'embedded' in /etc/X11/ion3/cfg_dock.lua and setting my ~/ion3/cfg_defaults.lua to:

--
-- Ion default settings
--

dopath("cfg_ioncore")
dopath("cfg_kludges")
dopath("cfg_layouts")

dopath("mod_query")
dopath("mod_menu")
dopath("mod_tiling")
-- ARN: statusbar niet meer default laten, want ik wil een embedded dock.
-- dopath("mod_statusbar")
--dopath("mod_dock")
dopath("mod_sp")

-- Deprecated.
dopath("cfg_user", true)

-- Debian extra configuration files
dopath("cfg_debian_ext")

[edit] panels

More recent versions of ion (since revision 282) disappear because they're too persistent about asking for a specific size/location. I haven't found a way around this apart from commenting out a small piece of code:
