Hi,
Is there a way to create a panel via the command line? Once I have a panel, I can create a pager. But I am logged in via NX to a desktop with no panels, and I can't seem to create one.
Thanks in advance.
To Timothy Pearson,
I sent this message, but it didn't appear in my copy of the mailing list.
I have been a KDE/TDE user since the late 1990s.
I use desktop panels extensively with 20 desktops each, on both client side and server side. The client-side is a Live USB drive with TDE/Ubuntu 12.04 from which I connect to a VPS with TDE/Ubuntu 12.04 via NoMachine's NX client. So I actually blend the two TDE environments with the same look and feel. The right and bottom panels I use for *client* desktops navigation via pager and external task bar (bottom). The Left and top panels are used for *server* desktops navigation via pager and external task bar (top). This is a standardized client-server TDE desktop configuration for high-end multi-projects design and development work in R&D scenarios (up to 400 virtual desktops per session), with sessions being persistent for months on end to allow workflow continuity.
TDE is the only practical platform in which to accomplish this. All the other desktops (Unity, Mint, etc, are toys in comparison). I am so tired of Linux balkanization, and I want TDE to win this damn entropy battle. So please help me!
I recently created a new user on one of my servers, and NX brought up a "home window" with no panels, leading to what appears to be a single-point failure. Apparently you can only create a panel from an existing panel by right clicking the mouse. Without an existing panel you can't create *any* panels. THIS IS A SERIOUS FAULT!. If there is no alternative way of creating panels from scratch, you need to create one.
Please inform me about what to do here.
TIA

I understand it correctly, that for you are not running Kicker?
Are the icons on your desktop? Alt + F2 opens a window to running the commands? When you enter there 'kicker' it starts? Otherwise, look into .xsession_errors that user.
Normally I have kicker on my external taskbar panel (bottom on client, top on server) and usually on my pager panels as well. But in this case I have no panels.
I will try your suggestion. Thanks.

The "kicker" command does not pop up a menu.

You should be able to manually launch a k control center module for kicker without kicker itself.

.trinity folder exists? If not, check the user's access rights to /home/bear1.
