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

Try running [c]lxpanel --profile slitaz[/c] from sakura and paste the error you get.

I got :
"There is already an instance of LXPanel. Now to exit"
Offline
Just reinstalled coz everything went wrong
Offline
tried installing the driver again and now its gone again

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 ?

It's working now for no apparent reason 
but I still dont have that start menu thingie (the spider icon)
and I did edit th application launch bar but not the panel itself
Offline
Why dont you simply do
cp /etc/lxpanel/slitaz/panels/bottom ~/.config/lxpanel/slitaz/panels/.
after installing the nvidia driver?
Offline
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 [c]/root/.config/lxpanel/slitaz/panels[/c] directory on my HD. But the directory exists for other users.
Why don't you log as a user ?
Offline
I'm logged as a user not as root unfortunately
