[solved] Openbox - autostart not executed completely

Hi there.

Since today openbox does not execute its autostart-file completely. It stops when it comes to applications which are supposed to start delayed (sleep).

Also not all applications in ~/.config/autostart are started.

Is there something new in openbox and/or slim? Those packages where upgraded yesterday among others.

Thanks for suggestions.

You did remember to include ampersands "&" at the end of your entries right?

Man! I'm so stupid! I just saw it. I forgot the ampersand after FuriusMoonScreenlet.py!

So sorry for bothering anybody with this!!!!!

Thanks for pushing me in the right direction!
