Hello,
My Plank is not launching on Arch. It WILL launch if I execute XDG_SESSION_VARIABLE=x11 before running plank. It will not run if I add export that line in .xinitrc. Is there a way to make it run automatically?
Thank you!

Please note I am running i3 on xorg.

Use Autostart: You can place a Plank launcher file (usually named "plank.desktop") in the ~/.config/autostart directory. This will automatically launch Plank when you log in.
Use a Session Manager: If you're using a session manager like i3, you can configure it to autostart Plank. In i3, you can add the following line to your i3 configuration file:
exec plank

Hi, thanks - the problem isn't auto starting plank, but rather setting the environment variable first.
I can't find a way for it to set properly

Solved - solution: move export XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11 BEFORE exec i3
All lines after the exec are ignored.
