NetworkManager 0.7 [solved]

Hey all, I just have a minor question.

NetworkManager 0.7 is bugging me a little, but methinks the culprit is really ck-launch-session.

If I try and autostart ck-launch-session, either in .xinitrc or .config/openbox/.autostart.sh, for some strange reason it doesn't kick in.

I've tried putting it in xinitrc before openbox starts, putting it in after openbox starts, giving a sleep 10 && ck-launch-session in autostart.sh and many other variations.

yadda yadda yadda, none of it works.

But when openbox starts and I just run ck-launch-session from urxvt, there isn't a problem, it starts and stays there, then I run nm-applet & and it starts and runs perfectly.

So what am I missing?

Cheers for any help, I'm most likely missing something glaringly obvious.

What's in your /etc/pam.d/login file? Do you have something like:

session   optional  pam_ck_connector.so

in there somewhere?

I have the above and my xinitrc is just this (all apps are started from ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh):

exec ck-launch-session openbox-session

Also, see this bug report for more discussion about this issue in case you haven't already: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/12221

hey, thanks for the fast response - I hadn't got that entry in pam.d/login and I guess due to pure incompetence wasn't exec'ing ck-launch-session when I had it in xinitrc before, i just had it entered plain.

*sighs*

chalk this one up to incompetence!

thanks for your help, everything's fine now
