desklets problem? - ~Knotts - 2008-02-26
hi, think i messed up a little, im rather new too linux. and in my quest for eye candy.
i was fooling around with disklets. adding some of the basic ones that come with gDesklets.
im using ubuntu 7.10,
well what i did was add a toolbar called infodomestics bar, and at first i couldnt place it.
was kinda stuck to the mouse. when i finally did manage to place the bar, my pidgion login icon moved from the top bar, to this
new infodomestics bar,
then i couldn't delete the desklet, i could move it around, but no option to close,
so i moved it off screen, till it vanished,
i thought. out of sight. out of mind. now, when i close my messanger n other apps. instead of minimizing to my top bar,
they close out all together, wich is rather irritating.
so im curious. is there a way to mass remove the desklets you have on your desktop?
or any advice on removing that infodomestics bar, wich i hope makes things go back to normal
any help would be appreciated. :)

why not just kill the process that is infodomestics ?
open a terminal and do
Code:
ps aux |grep infodomdoes it show up ?
if so you can kill the process with
Code:
kill -9 pidwhere pid is the process identifier
