fbpanel

Hi all,

I am using fbpanel in xfce, it works fine with the standard commands. I would like to run it via an at command but am unable to do so. Has anyone tried this?

Thanks.

Re: fbpanel

Probably at doesn't know which display is the active one. When setting up the at command, prepend it with the DISPLAY, like:

$ at now + 1 minutes
warning: commands will be executed using /bin/sh
at> DISPLAY=:0.0 mousepad
at> <EOT>
