OAFIID:GNOME_DockBarXApplet error (and crash) on panel startup

[Alberto Verdoja]

When i run dockbarx or I try to add it at the panel, give me the following error:

The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_DockBarXApplet". Do you want to delete the configuration?

I can choose to delete or not delete, but it's the same: DockbarX doesn't start.
I use Ubuntu Lucid and I have installe DockbarX from http://ppa.launchpad.net/dockbar-main/ppa/ubuntu .

Whould can it be? Should I give more informations to you?
Thanks for your works,
Alberto.

Methinks this is a duplicate of bug #606626.

This is probably a duplicate of bug #606568, but run dockbarx in window so and post the results so that it can be confirmed.

dockbarx_factory.py run-in-window

@Alberto
Could you please confirm if the bug is the same as bug #606568?

I suppose it's the same, sorry.
Should I have to install zeitgeist?
Should I have to install zeitgeist only from ppa?

[Matias Särs (msevens)]

Installing zeitgeist will do, waiting until tomorrow when dockbarx x.0.39.6 hits the ppa also works. I recommend you install zeitgeist from the ppa though, because of the features it brings dockbarx (well, at least if you work with gedit or gimp or other programs that has good zeitgeist support).

[Alberto Verdoja (nerduma)]

Thx Matias I will wait tomorrow for install zeitgeist from ppa and should I have to reinstall Dockbarx?

[Matias Särs (msevens)]

No, just remove dockbarx from panel and add it again.

[Thomas Edwards (tom-rb-edwards)]

This just started happening to me today, after dockbarx was updated.

Installing zeitgeist fixed it, thanks.
