<0> can anyone help with fbpager
<0> is everyone just idling
<1> no
<0> i wanna know how to move fbpager to the rightbottom of my screen
<2> how can you tell if everyone is just idling after 2 minutes?
<3> Use 'ALT+DRAG' to move it.
<0> thank you very much
<3> Pay attention to the coordinates of where it ends up, and put them in your ~/.fluxbox/fbpager config file for next time.
<4> do I need to run the command "sudo gedit....blah blah blah"....to make changes to fluxbox?
<5> _absolution_: no.
<1> lol
<6> hi all!
<6> hi?
<5> hello?
<7> ;D
<5> ;o
<7> can i change font text in fluxbox?
<8> I've a real strage issue here I can't seem to find it's source
<9> Sepho: go check the wiki
<8> Every time I start my X session using startx fluxbox executes my ~/.fluxbox/autostart.sh 3 times
<1> false
<1> fluxbox starts that zero times
<8> I've used the rootCommand: in .fluxbox/init
<1> you're starting it three times
<1> that's one
<8> How could it not start it?
<9> broken_chaos: why dont you use startfluxbox?
<8> Because if I use that even with empty .xinitrc and no autostart.sh the xserver stops unexpectedly
<8> I mean with
<8> xinitrc with exec startfluxbox and nothing more
<1> aka the x server never starts
<8> Right
<8> Is this common? :S
<9> what version of fluxbox do you have?
<1> anyway, sounds like a case for man $SHELL
<8> extra/fluxbox 1.0rc-1
<9> extra?
<8> ArchLinux ^^
<8> Extra repos
<8> Sorry
<1> why do people play these insane games with their systems and then ask us what's wrong?
<9> no idea
<8> Look I didn't play with it
<1> neither did we
<8> Did I say that?
<1> ask the packager
<9> brokenthorn: how do you start fluxbox/?
<8> Want the full description of how I've set it up?
<9> no
<8> I use startx
<9> I just wantto know how you start it
<8> .xinitrc
<9> from cli?
<8> Yes
<9> do you have startfluxbox in your $PATH?
<8> I do
<9> are you sure?
<8> I've tried it
<8> Of course
<8> It's in the same place as fluxbox /usr/bin
<9> can you paste your ~/.fluxbox/startup file for us
<8> I've removed it
<8> I don't use starfluxbox
<9> well we dont support your custom scripts
<8> I use a basic script
<8> gkrellm &
<8> fbpager -2 &
<8> like that
<8> nothing fancy
<8> *-w
<9> Im sure you will figure it out
<8> I would have used the startfluxbox method and ~/.fluxbox/startup instead of my custom script if the x server actually started that way
<8> what am I supposed to do if the server won't start, no errors, nothing
<8> just like that
<9> come ask for help like youre doing now?
<8> and I'm expecting help
<9> only since thats kind of part of fluxbox at least someone like me would be willing to help
<8> are you?
<9> if youre using startfluxbox and startup yes
<8> drats...
<9> thats why I asked for your startup file
<8> I will if you could help me with x also
<9> I doubt its X
<9> if youre able to get in now using your way Ill bet your startup had an error
<8> would you mind first looking at my startfluxbox script (not mine as I didn't write/modify it)
<8> errr: no it didn't. nothing on the cli or var/log/X*
<9> if its what came with fluxbox it is the same as mine
<8> well I don't know that for sure
<9> then grab a copy from svn
<8> it may be customed for my distro
<9> http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/fluxbox/trunk/util/startfluxbox.in
<8> errr: OK I'll check the svn
<9> if it is then you need to ask them for support not us
<8> well excuse me then
<9> you dont have to get butt hurt, we support the product as it is in its source form, what packagers do when tey package it should be supported by them
<8> but I thought startfluxbox is part of fluxbox
<9> if the arch people modify our source they need to support what the did
<8> I didn't mean it in a hard way
<8> I understand
<9> just wegt that file I linked to and diff it
<9> it should be the same
<1> it had better not
<9> why?
<1> that one has autoconf directives in it
<9> did you change it?
<9> where?
<8> who are you guys? :)
<9> _markt: the word auto isnt in the file
<1> @pkgbindir@
<9> oh
<9> **** I didnt notice that
<8> is the file ok?
<9> the one I linked to is fine, but as _markt pointed out the values in it will not be the same as yours due to the autoconf stuff in it
<1> and it won't run in bash
<9> just paste your file, Ill lookk at it
<9> look*
<9> if you didnt modify it Im sure its fine
<8> ok
<9> Id be far more intrested to see the startup file you were using and to know the premissions of the file
<8> 700
<9> not in pm
<9> ,paste
<10> if it's less then four lines it's ok. For more, use one of these pages: http://paste.phpfi.com/ http://rafb.net/paste/ http://freebsd.so14k.com:8080/ http://www.nomorepasting.com/paste.php http://cpp.sf.net
<8> I forgot about those
<9> go paste the file up there, and I am not interested in your autostart thing
<8> Err ok
<9> put your startup and your startfluxbox script up and Ill look at them
<11> is there any specific reason why there isn't a #!/bin/sh in the default startup file ? I've met someone who's shell seemed to be confused by that...
<9> it doesnt need one
<9> #!/bin/sh executes the file
<9> vim `which startfluxbox`
<9> line 26-35
<11> by default mod=755 and startup is just execd
<11> I allready saw those lines I solved his problem by telling him to change mod to 644
<8> errr: one other thing: should I not have a ~/.xsession if I'm not using xdm/gdm/kdm?
<9> brokenthorn: you dont need one
<9> y3: what shell did they have?
<8> errr: http://phpfi.com/126620
<9> that file looks fine at a glance
<8> it's 0755 root:root
<8> Apparently modified on Wednesday :/
<9> thats fine too
<8> So what is keeping the server from starting with .xinitrc: exec startfluxbox?
<9> let me see your startup file
<8> should I include relative paths?
<8> Like exec /usr/bin/startlfuxbox?
<8> errr: that files does not exits
<8> *exist
<8> I removed it
<8> rm .fluxbox/startup
<8> just in case it got executed too
