setup: OS = Debian Testing (running as guest in a Vbox vm on an openindiana (solaris-11 offshoot [illumos powered])) Virtualbox-5.6.2 desktop=lxde
I've reported a problem about the desktop icons unable to display their *.png images in another thread... the problem described below is probably part of the same root cause What I'm seeing is at the lxde main menu > preferences > openbox configuration manager When clicked nothing happens I just see the mouse cursor show the `busy' icon. Nothing ever starts After doing a few dpkg -L pkgname looking for something that might be the binary of that manager... I'm not able to find it. Even chking on a `stable' version (stretch) I can't really tell what runs when you click the openbox config manager. I guess it is reading '.config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml' Anyway, I'm not able to tell what is supposed to happen when that menu item is clicked. I can see whatever it is ... is not starting ... the `busy' mouse icon eventually stops and I get the regular mouse cursor back... takes about 10-15 seconds but configurator never appears. One thing that may be of note is that the .config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml Is getting read at login... If I make changes in that file they do show up if I relogin. But for some reason the configurator that edits that file is not starting.
