task bar missing [kiosk server]

Hello,

installed kiosk server 5.4 on an old pc but the task bar is missing. Tried 2 different screens with different sizes/resolutions. Think the fist got 1024x768 and the second one full HD.

BR,
Michael

Brutus,

Task bar is present only in server "Premium".
Are you using this version?

If yes then please ensure that you assign at least 64 MB of memory to the GPU card. That should give you a higher screen resolutions on virtual machines like VMware or VirtualBox.
Task bar should be visible then.

Thanks
Please add [Solved] to your thread title if the solution was found.

Running the free version, wasn't aware about that difference.
Was looking for "task bar" but it's named "bottom panel" on the comparison site.

Sorry and thank you for answering!
