[SOLVED] Avant window navigator runs twice at startup!

Hi, ive installed AWN and put itin to session menu in XFCE4 to run a startup.
When i type:

avant-window-navigator

It runs fine, but at startup, it runs twice!
I can see a AWN behind the other. This also happened in KDE4.

In your AWN option menu, do you have the little box checked that says: "Start AWN on login"? (Or something close to that) Try unchecking it, and removing your start up entry from the session manager as well. Test to make sure it does not start when you log back in, then JUST add it to your start up session menu. AWN will figure out it was added and check the box for you.

I had this problem for a long time in Gnome, and contrived a massive workaround where I had a short script that started it and added the script to the start up menu. Just adding it once is much cleaner. It's a quark of AWN's built in start up script.

Alternatively, you could let AWN start itself by checking that box rather than adding it to the session manager after logging back into your XFCE session.

I hope this helps!
