[CLOSED].
Mail desklet:
I got it configured to launch thunderbird on mouseclick
(mozilla-thunderbird) and it does launch the program.
Unfortunatly it displays the profilemanager everytime as
well, which is pretty annoying. If I launch thunderbird
through any other way, it starts the main application.
Yab desklet:
There is no way for me to edit the config.txt. Everytime I do
so, it creates a new bar which sometimes is launched, and
sometimes is not. And no, I did not start yab.py several
times ;)
Things I tried/did:
- Executed yab.py
- Edited the config.txt, choose restart -> yab did not
start
- Closed yab (quit), edited config.txt, restarted adesklets
-> see above
- Saved my config.txt, removed yab.py completly (also from
.adesklets), installed it again, added my config.txt, started
it -> Yup, still nothing
Even my "testconfig", which basically is the same as the one
that yab creates the first time (but with two firefox icons)
won't launch properly.
Config:

The funny thing is, the weather & mail plugin work
without a problem.

I have no clue for the mailer/mozilla-thunderbird issue...
Mailer does absolutely nothing special when executing
programs. :-(
You are more in luck for the
second one.
Sorry for the long delay answering you: I just missed your
post somehow. Regards,
