openbox 2 issues

Hello,
I have in my autostart.sh file sth like this

wicd-gtk &
tint2 &
start-pulseaudio-x11 &
kupfer &
nitrogen --restore &

And the problem is that kupfer and wicd are opened twice when I log in. I check and in Kupfer I disable option to auto start in wicd-gtk I can't find option to set auto start. Nitrogen set properly wallpaper and after1 second it is turned to blue colour.  I need to type again nitroge --restore & to set correct wallpaper. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Re: openbox 2 issues

you are using standalone openbox? Or you are using openbox with another desktop enviroment like for example gnome? Maybe that's the problem why your applications starts 2 times.
If you are using only openbox try to use the comand sleep like for example:

sleep 5 && wicd-gtk

Re: openbox 2 issues

Actually, at least with stalonetray which I use, wicd-gtk doesn't need to be in the autostart file to have the icon in the panel, just put wicd in the daemons in /etc/rc.conf.

The blue screen appeared for me yesterday after updates. If only I could remember WHICH updates. Conky, stalonetray, transparency etc work, just nitrogen doesn't load wallpaper automatically except for a second. Also I THINK some screen fonts have changed (firefox, folder and file titles in thunar). It's not the nitrogen autostart because the blue screen appeared when I removed it from autostart.sh.

Can't find anything indicating problems in the xorg log or in .xsession-errors...

Try using sleep like this:

(sleep 5 && wicd-gtk) &
tint2 &
start-pulseaudio-x11 &
kupfer &
nitrogen --restore &

It still doesn't work. After log in you can type again in terminal nitrogen --restore and wallpaper is back although it doesn't solve the problem...
Best Regards

Re: openbox 2 issues

Do you start them in any of your bash files, like .bashrc or .bash_profile?

Re: openbox 2 issues

No I start them using .config/openbox/autostart.sh.

[@ ~]$ cat .bashrc
[[ $- != *i* ]] && return
alias ls='ls --color=auto'
PS1='[\u@\h \W]\$ '
[@ ~]$ cat .bash_profile 
[[ -f ~/.bashrc ]] && . ~/.bashrc
[artur@artur-laptop ~]$

Re: openbox 2 issues

I had this happen to me with wicd-gtk, but I don't think I ever figured out why, I just removed it from my autostart.sh
