Yesterday's weekly system update brought 2 small noticeable improvements.
I boot into a raw console, then 'startx' to get going with Fluxbox. For the past few weeks, there has been a small delay while a little blank square was displayed in the top left corner, until the toolbar (panel) + (FB)pager appeared. After updating to pth-2.0.7-r2 both box & delay have vanished. It's not clear why these events sb related, as Pth is needed only for KDE. I have a lot of KDE 4 apps installed & ~/.xinitrc starts Kdelibs, but that shouldn't affect the opening of Fluxbox: at this stage, only Gkrellm has been started. See other msg for the other improvement + a query. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
