Re: [SOLVED]Obmenu won't start
Are you having problems launching obmenu from the Openbox menu, or just launching the program in general?
For the latter, try running it from a terminal and post the output (if any).

Re: [SOLVED]Obmenu won't start
When launching in terminal:
[matt@Arch-PC ~]$ obmenu
** Message: pygobject_register_sinkfunc is deprecated (GtkWindow)
** Message: pygobject_register_sinkfunc is deprecated (GtkInvisible)
** Message: pygobject_register_sinkfunc is deprecated (GtkObject)Then i get a tonne of this same error:
File "/usr/bin/obmenu", line 42, in createTree
self.createTree(hijo, it["id"])Lastly it sends this:
File "/usr/bin/obmenu", line 34, in createTree
for it in self.menu.getMenu(menuid):
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/obxml.py", line 327, in getMenu
mnu = self._get_dom_menu(menu)
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/obxml.py", line 40, in _get_dom_menu
if item.attributes["id"].nodeValue == menu: return item
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/xml/dom/minidom.py", line 823, in _get_attributes
return NamedNodeMap(self._attrs, self._attrsNS, self)

Re: [SOLVED]Obmenu won't start
Maybe start with a clean menu.xml and try obmenu again?
cp /etc/xdg/openbox/menu.xml ~/.config/openboxOffline

Re: [SOLVED]Obmenu won't start
Oops, I forgot to tell you that I got those errors and it doesn't actually start the obmenu program. So I don't think it's my menu.xml file.

Re: [SOLVED]Obmenu won't start
It would still help if you tried with a clean menu.xml.

Re: [SOLVED]Obmenu won't start
Did you run "openbox --reconfigure" after copying over the new menu?
Also I found a thread with almost the same error:
