I can see this issue bugging people outside of Ubuntu's main desktop(s). Having this command in a launcher should be more efficient than the regular launcher.Įventually, we should perhaps add some option to Onboard and make appindicator optional. Onboard /org/onboard/ Onboard/ Keyboard org.onboard. Not every user is aware of the names of the repository present on the system, therefore Ubuntu has a command to list the repositories.

To remove a specific repository, we need to know the exact name of the PPA involved.
$ dbus-send -type=method_call -dest= org.onboard. It can be done by: sudo add-apt-repository -remove ppa:Since you're building from source, there is one more option: Onboard trunk (not 0.98.x) has a D-Bus interface for showing/hiding, some documentation is in the README. This may or may not break other apps, though, if they don't provide their own status icon fallbacks. $ sudo apt-get remove gir1.2- appindicator3- 0.1

Don't know if those are separate on Arch, but on Ubuntu 12.10 it would be If you can't uninstall libappindicator, it may be worth a try to just get rid of its introspection data. That second execution is cut short and doesn't do a lot, but there's still python to be started and modules to be imported. The difference is that the status icon just sends messages (via D-Bus in the case of libappindicator) to a existing Onboard instance, whereas the launcher actually executes Onboard again. It may not help a lot on Arch, but Francesco has already packaged the new release for our stable PPA This should be fixed in the just released Onboard 0.98.1. On Ubuntu they are all using libappindicator now, which comes with its own ideas for icon naming. After the installation we will need the Templates and Custom Sensors are a more advanced feature in Home Assistant My. The missing icon in lxde is most likely the same issue as that mint/gnome fallback bug in Onbord. uninstall libappindicator Onboard will use its own status icon and fall back to the old behavior enable the floating icon in preferences keep a launcher in the panel trying to launch Onboard a second time will unhide an existing instance. There are a couple of options to still show Onboard on left click: Only middle clicks reach applications, so Onbord uses them to hide/unhide now.

AppIndicator doesn't allow us to hide/unhide on left or right click, that's just how it's designed. I believe libappindicator has taken over the job of displaying Onboard's status icon in many desktop environments.
