[Solved]Openbox3 Update

I like the new default menu in openbox. It is much more, realistic/practical/useful.

But, the new logout option kills openbox. It gives the All your base error.
The exit option also prompts a 'cancel' or 'ok' option, whether you want it to or not. The logout option doesn't prompt, even though it is supposed to, it just crashes openbox.

Saving menu changes in obmenu doesn't update your menu anymore, you have to run reconfigure from the openbox menu.

Not asking for a patch, just reporting. I should probably check if there is a bug report on the openbox site. Or maybe someone more experienced who has this problem can, or not.

Re: [Solved]Openbox3 Update

saving menu changes in obmenu never automatically updated the menu for me, I was under the impression that the behaviour was always that menu.xml was only read during startup or by doing the reconfigure.

A new default menu that is structured a bit more like the Gnome or XFCE menus - grouped into categories like Office, Terminals, Graphics, etc. and populating those menus with common applications (gimp, gnome terminal, etc)

Re: [Solved]Openbox3 Update

ah, ok

I kept my menu.xml file, and didn't notice that there is a new default menu.

Re: [Solved]Openbox3 Update

Hate to revive my old post, but a recent update fixed my problem above with the menu.

As far as I know, haven't tested in a while, the logout session thing still crashes, I don't use that feature though, if anyone knows for sure, please post. I don't feel like intentionally crashing openbox right now, and I took that entry out of my menu.
