There may have been something on the list in the past and I didn't see it. If so, sorry for that. My taskbar simply vanished......with no warning, no setting changes, etc......just gone. Is there a way to get it back in 10.1 without it taking "an act of Congress?"
Thanks in advance!!
If you're using KDE, this happens when "kicker" crashes. On my box that happens, e.g., if i reconfigure the sound device while KDE is running.
To get it back:
Alt-F2 kicker <ENTER>
If you're running GNOME... no clue.
Resurrecting an 'oldie'.... I just lost the taskbar--suddenly, without warning and without provocation. Doing the above produced nothing; I had to use ps aux and kill the PID. Only then did the taskbar appear FOR A BRIEF MOMENT before vanishing again when I did the ALT-2/kicker thing. Rebooting has done nothing to bring it back. Anyone offer a suggestion on how to get my most important taskbar back, please? Cheers. PS There is no gnome in this household. -- I'm dangerous when I know what I'm doing.
