   after installing the nvidia drivers, lxpanel does not startup anymore
   I've looked at the open box autostart configuration and it is listed there(and enabled) I've also tried enabling the autostart of the panel manually in the config file and its not working

   Key Master

   Try running lxpanel --profile slitaz from sakura and paste the error you get.

   It says there is already a running instance; try

   ps -ef | grep lxpanel
   killall lxpanel
   ps -ef | grep lxpanel # check if gone; if not, issue "killall lxpanel" as root
   lxpanel --profile slitaz

   if lxpanel is not back, try command "lxpanel" (with no profile) and you should have some sort of panel (the default panel, in fact) to begin with

   Did you try to customize the panel(s) before you had problems ?

   Why dont you simply do

   cp /etc/lxpanel/slitaz/panels/bottom ~/.config/lxpanel/slitaz/panels/.

   after installing the nvidia driver?

   cp: can't create '/root/.config/lxpanel/slitaz/panels/': No such file or directory

   I tried creating the directory manually and got the same error

    @ Adel

    You are log as root. I don't have any /root/.config/lxpanel/slitaz/panels directory on my HD. But the directory exists for other users.
    Why don't you log as a user ?
