That's called panel in Linux land. Which Destop Environment do you have?

Sorry, I'm blind. You have one at the top by default, and other at the bottom for pinned programs.

Do a Google search for "xfce missing panel". There are a lot of responses.

Try in terminal enter command:

Code: Select all

xfce4-panel
or before

Code: Select all

ls /usr/bin | grep panel
or instead of this

Code: Select all

`ls /usr/bin | egrep -e -panel`

Hi guys, good morning.
I'm sorry for the waiting i'm working hard.

Here i have the output:

Code: Select all

nobo@debian:~$ xfce4-panel
xfce4-panel: Ya existe una instancia en ejecución

Code: Select all

nobo@debian:~$ ls /usr/bin/ | grep panel
xfce4-panel

Code: Select all

nobo@debian:~$ ls /usr/bin/ | grep -e panel
xfce4-panel

Code: Select all

nobo@debian:~$ pidof xfce4-panel
767
Yes it's working, but is empty... I add some launchers ... For exemple terminal... But in others desktop for exemple if you have more than 1 terminal open.. When you click again, you can open new or select one that you have open at this moment (do you know?).

Thx!!!

panel is running, but not showing the things you want?
i suggest you just delete the panel settings (in ~/.config/xfce4-panel at a wild guess) and restart.
it should give you a default, usable panel.

Hi guy, good morning. Look this:

Code: Select all

nobo@debian:~$ sudo rm ~/.config/xfce4-panel
[sudo] password for nobo: 
rm: no se puede borrar '/home/nobo/.config/xfce4-panel': No existe el fichero o el directorio

do you understand what wild guess means?

open your file manager, press Ctrl-H and open the folder .config.
now search.
or better, read xfce4-panel's documentation:

Code: Select all

man xfce4-panel
also, do NOT use sudo without reason!!!!

Good morning.

No, i don't know what is "wild guess" sorry..

I check it in file manager and i haven't /.config/xfce4-panel...

I have a directory called xfce4/panel

Maybe i should delete this directory called "panel" ??

This is what called wild guess ?

Regards !!

EDIT:

I do this and look the result... Is the same panel like i created but.. Without the shortcuts ...

nah you should be able to just right click on the panel and add anouther at top or bottom and add new items to customize it to your liking. If your deleting parts of it I'd suggest doing a Xfce upgrade/ update to make sure all the files are complete.

Perhaps, in system something wrong. Try as root:

Code: Select all

apt-get update
apt-get -f install
dpkg --configure -a
apt-get --reinstall install xfce4-panel
