It seems to me that the applying patches entry isn't needed any more (I added it to the old wiki), since applets are now easier to install for testers. --Andrewsomething 05:28, 2 October 2007 (PDT)




Added: "I installed AWN, but I can't run awn-manager."

I keep seeing people running into this problem on the Ubuntu Forums. For some reason the try running awn-manager before ever running AWN, which will not work.... --Andrewsomething 12:12, 26 October 2007 (PDT)


I uploaded a screen shot of how to add awn to the gnome session this morning. When I logged in this afternoon to actually include the image in the FAQ I found it had already been done.

Thanks for doing that Malept! --Rharrison 13:27, 3 December 2007 (PST)


On the subject of AWN in Openbox, I've followed the instructions in the FAQ but not seeing the desired effect. I'm running Openbox 3.4.7-pre2 and AWN 0.3.1. Various states of the auto-hide and hide-under-maximized settings in AWN don't seem to affect it. I've also tried variants of the rc.xml entry such as class="avant-window-navigator" and type="dock", to no avail. Any ideas? --Ian 11 June 2008

[edit] Added tip for repositioning bar

I don't know if this is absolutely unsupported/unstable, but I learned it playing around with gconf-editor and I thought it could be useful for someone else. (Edited section is "How do I reposition AWN bar?") If inappropriate, please simply revert :)
