Hi Michael,

Thanks for reporting this. I've got many similar reports for a while,
I'd really like to solve the actual problem to prevent our user keeps
get the same error.

Could you please check what's $XDG_CONFIG_HOME in your session?

If it is not '$HOME/.config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml', I guess you probably
use 'openbox-lxde' script to start up the session instead of use the
correct 'startlxde' one..

Could you please help me, how do you start up the lxsession/openbox-lxde
in detail?

If my assume was correct, the openbox-lxde script has:
    $ cat /usr/bin/openbox-lxde
    #!/bin/sh
    exec openbox --config-file $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/openbox/lxde-rc.xml $@

And the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is set in startlxde script:
    if [ -z "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME" ]; then
        export XDG_CONFIG_HOME="$HOME/.config"
    fi

Kindly regards,

-Andrew
