LXDE wiki page

I just finished installing Arch linux with LXDE. At first I was having an issue where the menu would not populate and I would get an error like this on in the console

** (process:15327): WARNING **: removed previous socket file /tmp/.menu-cached-:0-**

I found after a while that deleting ~/.config/openbox fixed my problem.

Just wanted to share because I think the info on the wiki might have caused my problem. Here's why:

Place menu.xml, rc.xml and autostart in ~/.config/openbox
They can be found in /etc/xdg/openbox

As the user of interest

mkdir -p ~/.config/openbox
cp /etc/xdg/openbox/menu.xml /etc/xdg/openbox/rc.xml /etc/xdg/openbox/autostart ~/.config/openbox

After deleting ~/.config/openbox and running xinit /usr/bin/startlxde a single file is created in the same location but its called lxde-rc.xml

It may also be a total coincidence but I'll let the pros figure it out.

Re: LXDE wiki page

Its a wiki. You can edit the page yourself if you are sure that it is incorrect.
