1. Does your  xchat  icon re-appear if you enter:

--- Code: ---tce-load -i xchat
--- End code ---

--- End quote ---
Yes it does, but I shouldn't have to load a shell to type that in everytime I want the extension loaded.


--- Quote ---2. Does grep find  xchat  if you enter:

--- Code: ---grep xchat /mnt/sda1/tce/onboot.lst
--- End code ---

--- End quote ---
No but onboot.lst file exists with other tcz files listed in it.


--- Quote ---3. Did you leave the dropdown to the left of the  Go  button set to  OnBoot  or change it to something else?

--- End quote ---

I change it to "Download + Load" before I click "go" every time.


--- Quote ---Does /mnt/sda1/tce/optional exist?

--- End quote ---
Yes


--- Quote ---Are there any files in it?

--- End quote ---

a bunch of files with extensions tcz, txt, and dep
But none of them contain the word xchat

That's why it "disappeared". In the future, leave it set to  OnBoot  if you want it to load automatically.

In the Apps utility, click  Apps->Maintenance->OnBoot Maintenance.
In the left pane, click on  xchat.tcz.
Click the  Add Item  button.
xchat  will now load automatically when your system boots.

Ok I did seem to find a workaround just before you made your post.

After installing new apps, and before restarting the computer, I had to do the following:

Click apps, maintenance, "Onboot maintenance"  then the new tcz files that I just installed (including new dependencies) I had to click each file one by one and click "Add item" for each.

No, dependencies don't need to be added to  OnBoot.  Dependencies get loaded automatically. That's what the  .dep  files are for.
xchat.tcz.dep  lists  gtk1.tcz.
gtk1.tcz.dep  lists  glib1.tcz.

The loader works its way through those files to make sure dependencies are loaded.
