[SOLVED]cairo-dock and menu

[nwtmg]

Hi,

Upgraded to 6 and installed cairo-dock as panel with compiz as window manager mate desktop. Cannot get a menu with cairo-dock. Download the source for gnomenu and installed but still no luck. Installed gnomenu rpm from site but getting error about numpy. Will not recognize lancelot also. Any suggestions for a solution would be appreciated. Thanks.

Any suggestion for what exactly, you posted 3 different problems in one post.

about cairo-dock, what output do you get when you run it from a terminal as a regular user, please post the complete output here.
about gnomenu, please post the full error message. And if you're missing a package you might need to ensure that's installed
about lancelot, I don't understand your sentence. Who will not recognize lancelot? You realise that lancelot is a KDE menu, how do you want to start that under MATE ?

Hi ,

Here is the output from the cairo-dock -o start in terminal. I have now moved to lxqt. Regarding lancelot there is plugin in the cairo-dock for lancelot menu so I thought I could use it.
Seems like I may be missing something from python for gnomenu. Thanks.

No you're not missing something, there seems to be an issue of cairo-dock loading distributor-logo or its attributes, or there's a conflict between cairo-dock and gnomenu.

You could check if this http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/showpo ... stcount=13 still applies.

And please report that as a bug, after searching if it hasn't been reported yet already: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/How_to_report_a_bug_properly
For completeness's sake and also to allow others to follow up on that bug report, please also post the link to it here in the thread, thanks.

Thanks for the response. That suggestion worked and the menu is now functioning. I also created a bug report with the following url
https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21401 . Thank you.
