New openbox! Where did my settings go?

Ole Erik · 2006-08-28 19:35:33

Ok now i am realy pissed.. I updated openbox, and now all of my settings has been ereased.. The theme is changed.. The menuitems is gone!
No of the keyboard shortcuts works.. I cant start obconf.. I cant start the menu editor.. I cant open terminals.. Also my sweat traybar is also fucked..

Where did my old settings go?

*Trying a restart now*

EDIT: It didnt help to restart.. Now firefox is the only thing working OK.. But the theme in firefox is changed too!

WTF is going on! :evil:

Can i revert to my old settings?

EDIT2:

Installing firefox again helped a bit. Now i can use firefox!

If i could start obconf i may fix the rest without help..
Getting this error:

obconf: error while loading shared libraries: libobrender.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

for a quick fix cd into /usr/lib and do
ln -s libobrender.so.0.4.0 libobrender.so.1
ln -s libobparser.so.0.4.0 libobparser.so.1

rebuilding obconf should take care of libobrender.so.1 errors. Not sure about the rest of it but I would try rebuilding openbox and report any compile errors.

your settings are in ~/.config/openbox/

rc.xml is keybindings and general settings
menu.xml is your menu

Take a look and see if they are still intact.

Ole Erik · 2006-08-29 14:27:10

Now obconf will start.. But it only hangs on start! Not even my keyboard settings will load correctly. Everything is fucked, and it takes many hours to reinstall archlinux.

Seems like I will have to change to windows again.

Please tell me if u got a fix for the whole arch...

Mr Green · 2006-08-29 14:36:05

Does pango need rebuilding only I have just updated obconf & it does not work any more

rolled back to 1.6-1 & it works again.....

Ole Erik · 2006-08-29 14:39:07

Ok now i have fixed some of my problems.. Just did this:
for a quick fix cd into /usr/lib and do
ln -s libobrender.so.0.4.0 libobrender.so.1
ln -s libobparser.so.0.4.0 libobparser.so.1

Now my theme is changed back etc.. Maybe it was good with a fresh start. My menu was a mess

Mr Green · 2006-08-29 14:40:31

If you need any help with menus let me know .... O & back up .config just to be safe ;-)

allucid · 2006-08-29 14:45:08

assuming openbox is hosed...you do *not* need to reinstall anything. Worst case, you will have to redo your openbox menu and settings.

Ole Erik · 2006-08-29 14:47:55

Noooo! I cant use my wolumewheel etc to controll the music.
How do I configure that again?

Ole Erik · 2006-08-29 14:54:34

My worst problem is that my traybar (cant remember the name) is pushing the windows..

In obconf look at the settings for the dock.

Ole Erik · 2006-08-29 20:49:46

Oh yeah! Thank you all *waves bye to windows*

Now.. How do I get the play - next - prevous - stop - volume buttons to work? And how do I see the "name" of the key? I remember it was a command with 3 letters or something.
I know they are something like F13-F14-F15 and so on. But I wanna be sure

allucid · 2006-08-29 20:58:15

xev

Ole Erik · 2006-08-29 21:40:35

aah.. ty..
Now.. What commands to i use to set the volume up and down? and how to i make audacious use the start-stop etc buttons?

The error message would probably help, run it in a terminal

Ole Erik · 2006-09-09 08:03:55

same as laste time..

obtuner: error while loading shared libraries: libobparser.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

dive · 2007-06-10 09:45:38

i`ve got this error too...

obtuner: error while loading shared libraries: libobparser.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

tomk · 2007-06-10 11:36:00

You need to rebuild obtuner against the new ob libraries.

detto · 2007-06-10 15:40:18

instead of rebuilding obconf i recommend you to upgrade to new obconf-2.0.0 really nice updates there!
