[SOLVED][Fluxbox]xcompmgr does't render all perfectly

Hi at all... I have reinstall my arch two days ago with fluxbox. I installed also xcompmgr and put into my .xinitrc this:

#!/bin/sh
#
# ~/.xinitrc
#
# Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)

# exec gnome-session
# exec startkde
# exec startxfce4
# ...or the Window Manager of your choice

xset s off -dpms &
xcompmgr -c -r10 -F -f -D5 -C -o0.8 &
conky &

exec fluxbox

but when I do startx, at first seem to be all normal but without the composite manager, then when it start the shadows appear around the windows as should be, but the toolbar is not completely drawn and only when I move a window over it then the toolbar refresh and all is almost perfetc except for conky that has his shadow when I don't want it.

Someone can help me?

PS. Sorry for my bad english

EDIT: I have tryed something: I removed the line of xcompmgr in the .xinitrc and start it from a shell after the startx and all work perfectly, even the shadow around conky... only that I don't want start xcompmgr by hand every time...

try sleeping before launching command at fluxbox's startup :

sleep 5 && xcompmgr -c -r10 -F -f -D5 -C -o0.8 &
sleep 2 && conky &
