OpenBox autostart and xinitrc diagnostics
Do either of these files leave a log trace in any log file anywhere
when they are invoked? If so where, and using what commands/utilities
to display those entries?
Sounds trivial, but I can't seem to find any trace of these files executing, other
than the the fact that the various entries appear in a system monitor and are
running their various functions on the system.
I'm trying to diagnose exactly one, of several identical openbox systems, I have that is
misbehaving. Quite annoying when you can't trace anything.

Re: OpenBox autostart and xinitrc diagnostics
You can redirect stdout/stderr inside the xinitrc for each command or for all, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/314 … ipt-itself
