[dzen2] one question

hi,

how can i run dzen with command line, with some picture (icon) ?
for example:

$ DOT="^p(5)^c(5)^p(5)"
$ PICCLOCK="^fg(#80AA83)^i($HOME/.xmonad/icons/xbm8x8/clock.xbm)^fg()"
$ (echo "$PICCLOCK hello $DOT"; sleep 10) | dzen2

so, DOT is work, but PICCLOCK it doesn't work

Works fine here. Check the path to the icons again.

Use LVM2!

From dzen's README:

By default dzen will not be compiled with Xinerama and XPM support.
Uncomment the respective lines in config.mk to change this.

Did you do so?
