# Re: A few suggestions Post by: satoshi on December 18, 2009, 05:37:48 PM What you can currently do is set "Minimize to the tray" in options, then run it as "bitcoin -min" so it starts minimized.  The only visible part will be a small (20x20) icon on the tray, which can be doubleclicked if you want to access the UI.  Note: there's a bug with tray icons sometimes disappearing on 64-bit Karmic Koala, not sure if it's from 64-bit or Karmic, it was fine on 32-bit Jaunty. We didn't have time to implement the "Start Bitcoin on system startup" feature on Linux in time for 0.2 so it's greyed out.  I figured Linux people wouldn't mind doing that manually anyway.  I guess they need to know about the -min switch to do it right. You can locate the data directory where you want with the "-datadir=" switch.  I know someone is already doing that to put it on a TrueCrypt USB drive. --- Source file: bitcoin-forum-satoshi-nakamoto.tgz External link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=12.msg79#msg79
