Interpreting debugging files

I tried to start the desktop but there was no panel at the bottom. So I tried an xterm:

michael@slitaz:~$ lxpanel &

(process:2086): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.

        Using the fallback 'C' locale.

michael@slitaz:~$ ** (lxpanel:2086): DEBUG: cache file_name = /home/michael/.cache/menus/6449b28b2230f1e67516b473d8740e08

lxpanel: expecting Plugin section

lxpanel: can't start panel

** (lxpanel:2086): DEBUG: cache file_name = /home/michael/.cache/menus/6449b28b2230f1e67516b473d8740e08

lxpanel: can't start plugin batt

I opened this debugging file and found:

But I have no idea what this means - in terms of: what I must do to correct this problem.

Anybody around for that?

Re: Interpreting debugging files

Does lxpanel start if you login from slim to a different user account?

If it starts problem is corrupted config files for lxpanel in ~/

You can either delete or rename the corrupted configs.

Logout/in

or

lxpanelctl restart

Should generate new default lxpanel configs for that account

Another check:

#tazpkg check

Any errors about files missing/changed from lxpanel?

If yes:

#tazpkg -gi lxpanel --forced

Re: Interpreting debugging files

Thanks, quick work,

wrong or corrupted configuration. I just copied the status that I found in /root/.config/lxpanels to the users directory, set the ownerships into a correct status and then it worked!

OT: any new status for installing LaTeX in Slitaz 3.0? I tried for long using get-texlive but failed. Let us say I would download directly per wget the necessary file *.tar.gz - how should I install it then to Slitaz?
