I have tested with 14.04 LTS but not with 14.10. I will try to test with 14.10 soon. I would appreciate any feedback from other users who have 14.10 installed.

I looked at this thread and it seems the problem was caused by not using the correct VortexBox installation procedure to install the new version of MinimServer.

I could not resist and played around with my desktop computer, updated minimwtach to the current version, ran setup and opted for desktop integration and run at startup. After logging off and on, neither "[/home/USER/]minimwatch/bin/startc" nor [/home/USER/]minimwatch/bin/startd" nor double-clicking on the respective files in nautilus worked. Then I got aware of an apparently new file "starti; [/home/USER/]minimwatch/starti (or double-clicking the "starti" file) resulted in a lovely icon (see attachment).

If you select desktop integration, you should see a MinimWatch launch icon on your desktop. Are you seeing this launch icon? This is the correct way to launch MinimWatch and get a system tray icon for managing MinimServer. See this section for details.

At present, double-clicking this icon runs the undocumented starti command that you have found but this could change in the future. The supported and recommended way to start MinimWatch is by double-clicking the MinimWatch desktop launch icon.
