Hi, I've been using plain fluxbox, rather than any DE, for several years now. I use dunst for libnotify server BTW... However now a days there's an application "hpmyroom" [1], based on QT for linux, which dies any time there's an interactive popup. For example deleting a buddy will pop up a dialog to ask whether you want to confirm or not. Or when someone sends a buddy request, a dialog pops up to confirm whether to accept it or not. When using plain fluxbox, "hpmyroom" immediately dies with a segmentation fault, when such popups are suppose to happen (nothing pops up actually). Other guys using same OS than I do (Arch) were not having problems, but they were using DEs like XFCE, Gnome, KDE and others. So I tried LXDE, but using fluxbox instead of openbox. To my surprise, that worked out. Same fluxbox, just on top LXDE. Problem is that I don't really want to be running a DE. I was exploring what would LXDE be providing that I'm not using on plain fluxbox with no DE, but couldn't find what it might be. As mentioned, I was already using a libnotify server, dunst. I changed it for others like "xfce4-notifyd" and "notification-daemon", which made no difference. So I discarded a libnotify issue. Then the other thing that came to mind, though more relunctantly was graphics polkit. So I called "lxpolkit" (part of lxsession from LXDE) on the .xinitrc, prior to calling "startfluxbox", but that didn't help either. So, as I suspected initially, that didn't seem like it. Arch handles dbus through xinit, when calling "startx" or using "xdm", but then just in case I tried manually: systemctl --user import-environment DISPLAY XAUTHORITY dbus-update-activation-environment DISPLAY XAUTHORITY As expected, that didn't help a bit... Anyone with some clues as to what I might be missing to keep using plain fluxbox? -- Javier [1] https://www.myroom.hpe.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
