The bottom task bar dissapeared!!

So I logged on as normal, and the bottom bar just didnt show up. I've rebooted several times to no avail. What happened? how can I fix this?

Re: The bottom task bar dissapeared!!

Known issue. check:

http://forum.slitaz.org/topic/the-taskbar-is-missing#post-21857

Where mojo writes: There is a bug with lxpanel where if the user makes a change to one panel on next login the other panel doesn't appear.For both panels to appear requires 2 configs named bottom and panel or no configs.If you make a change it only sets the config for the panel you modified. Having 1 config prevents the other panel from appearing. I modify both top and bottom panel to get around the problem so it writes both configs. Without any configs in the users account it defaults to

the global configuration in /etc/lxpanel/slitaz/panels

To bring back both panels:

rm ~/.config/lxpanel/slitaz/panels/*

For user tux:

rm /home/tux/.config/lxpanel/slitaz/panels/*

Logout/in X session

Thank you.
