cairo-dock --help


So for you :
cairo-dock -c -s

i may not have the right sense for your humor. but i also don't think that your answer was clever was it just to make clear that you only want nerds and geeks in this forum? as far as i can see, the dock appears on the current workspace and can't be moved to another one. in other words: i have to start the dock manually, via a terminal, on the correct workspace. this is not in any way automizeable via a startup-script. my knowledge about the SM and WM mechanisms is too low to oversee if at least a re-login would pop up the dock at the right place again. however, it is a hackish solution and definetly not clever.

some graphical config would do better here. if you want the thread to be sorted under "improvements", just hang it over.

many thanks,
dennis heuer

?
each program has options, it is very comon to start a program with some options
see the documentation/forum/wiki of your distrib to know how to lanuch a program on startup.
it is the basis of any Linux desktop so you should learn them before

We receive many questions already answered on the doc, forum and wiki. I give you the command that you want and you say that I'm a idiot...

I don't know what you want but I advise you to be more sympathetic if you want that we answer to your questions

fabounet, sorry but what you write is full nonsense. desktop environments are there to get rid of the console. this is their expressed target. also, -s doesn't play well together with the desktop system because it enforces manual actions, even on the shell, and can't work with the desktop startup/restart logic. your documentation also doesn't solve this issue because there is no solution yet. how can it already be documented?

only for clearance, from your style of writing i seem to use computers some decades longer than you. and, matttbe, targeting me at --help is rather calling *me* an idiot. i was ok with the others yet, but, matttbe, your answers really did not help a glimpse. you should reflect your own doings a bit deeper.

ok, you are from a different planet. i could have known this as i saw this coffee-cooking options and the multi-formatted, purple title in the config manager. you don't seem to be much interested in HCI (human-computer-interaction).

however, i leave now!

you have your forum back,
dennis

ok nicely done, I like the last sentence
but in "advanced" desktop environement, there is always a graphic tool that let you set up the programs on startup.
and guess what ? you can write "cairo-dock -c" instead of "cairo-dock" there
of course, your UNIX desktop probably doesn't offer this functionnality, but I think that YOU are from another planet then

En même temps (je sais : je parle en français) , pour çà, il n'a pas forcément tord !

OK, je sors !
