Title: How to start WM without WBAR?
Post by: bmarkus on July 12, 2009, 11:42:37 AM

How can I start a WM without starting WBAR? Tried to change /etc/sysconfig/icons from a script in /usr/local/tce.installed but it always keeps wbar, while in the same script I can change /etc/sysconfig/desktop to WM I want to get started.

Would like to avoid using the noicons boot parameter.

Please advice.

Why?

You could replicate what the bootcode does manually.

either one of these should make the 'wbar' command do nothing

Code: [Select]

alias wbar='' #added to .ashrcor

Code: [Select]

touch $HOME/.local/bin/wbar
chmod +x $HOME/.local/bin/wbar
It won't work if wbar is called with its full path.

You could opt for microcore + core elements, no wbar there.
