[Linux Station]Unity launcher ignores my changes and always show the default set of icons

[knwt]

After updating to Linux Station V1.2.2009, every time I log off and log in again my launcher goes back to default icons (Amazon, Office, QTS, etc) no matter how many times I remove everything but Kodi and Firefox.

Tried to right click and "Unlock from the launcher" and also click and drag to the trash.

Any ideas?

- I didn't mess around with any UI tweaker
- I Disabled/Enabled my Linux Station so I can have a fresh start.
- I can change the wallpaper normally. The only problem I'm having is with the default icons from the Unity Laucher.

Are you using the user "admin"? Create a new user in Linux Station and use it to login instead. If I remember correctly, user "admin" will be overwritten during the restart of Linux Station.

Yes, in 16.04 it now deletes all user settings after a reboot. No not the Admin account like normal, now any created user account!

After 100+ hours work trying to get either 14.04 or 16.04 functional (deluge+sonarr+PIA+kodi), I've given up on the p.o.s. called Linux Station.

I am having the same issue as well under 16.04. Ignores my launcher customization upon logoff or reboot even when using a different account other than admin. On a previous install however it worked fine. It appears that a recent Linux Station update may be the culprit. I also noticed this version is a bit different with Kodi 17.0 and Chrome pre-installed. The version that worked before had an older Kodi and no Chrome.

Same issue! Before the last update all worked well also with admin user. Now I've problem also with KODI that often crashes and I lost some settings about Pulse Audio etc!

Any updates here? Has anyone started a ticket with Qnap?

[aryan]

No, I'll try soon the new QTS 4.3.3 and I'll see if the have fixed this issue

I've created a ticket for this, referencing this thread and steps to reproduce. There are a lot of problems I have with Linux Station right now.

[brandon.arnold]

For the record, it is pretty easy to use XFCE instead (log out and back in after running 'sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop').

I have started a ticket with this issue, as other launchers have other issues, and I hate to stray too far from the vanilla Linux Station configuration, seeing as how it is very easy to have to wipe it out and reinstall it.

Update: opened ticket #OVG-686-15307 three weeks ago with this issue. Met with Loc 5 days later, who recorded my reproducing the defect live. Since then I've been pinging him every 3-4 days, but he has stopped responding as of 1.5 weeks ago.

QNAP linux station replace all launcher icons at session start.

for disable this "feature" open gnome-session-properties and disable or delete /usr/bin/qnap-launcher
