LXDE and wicd-tray?

Post by Fisch.666 »

Hi!

I'm not able to get the wicd- tray to work in LXDE 0.5.0-4 from debian testing. When i start wicd-gtk with the -n option, the wicd starts without the problem. But as soon as i try to start wicd in tray (without the -n option) i'm getting this error:

Code: Select all

Has notifications support True
Loading...
Connecting to daemon...
Connected.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/wicd/gtk/wicd-client.py", line 1034, in <module>

    return func(*args, **kwargs)

  File "/usr/share/wicd/gtk/wicd-client.py", line 233, in _show_notification
    self._last_bubble.show()
glib.GError: Unable to connect to server
I think this is not a lxde problem, but i'm asking this here because i hope someone is running wicd with lxde and can give me a hint how to solve this.

Thanks in advance for a reply.

Ok, got this to work. There seems to be some problems with the notifications, disabling "Display notifications about connection status" in the preferences did the trick.
