Package: fluxbox Version: 0.9.11-1sarge0 Severity: wishlist
Hi. I propose to change the session files such that XDM, GDM, KDM, ... use startfluxbox instead of just fluxbox. As far as I can see, this affects two files: /etc/gdm/Sessions/fluxbox and /usr/share/xsessions/fluxbox.desktop. The attached patch changes them. In the latter, we might want to change the TryExec entry too; I don't know about that. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.11-pcwin174 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages fluxbox depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libfontconfig1 2.3.2-1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.1.7-2.4 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:3.4.3-13 GCC support library ii libice6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libsm6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Window System Session Management ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.5-13 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxft2 2.1.7-1 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxpm4 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X pixmap library ii libxrandr2 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Window System Resize, Rotate and ii libxrender1 1:0.8.3-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii menu 2.1.24 provides update-menus functions fo ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-4 compression library - runtime -- no debconf information
