fluxbox menu not working.

Fluxbox has been working fine on my computer for weeks. I can't think of anything i installed on it recently besides adesklets and conky. It still worked fine for days with those on there. now suddenly when i restarted, fluxbox starts fine, conky and adesklets start fine, and i can right click to get menu, but no applications start. i can't open anything on my menu.

Re: fluxbox menu not working.

check the menu file to make sure nothing strange happened to it, i believe its under /home/$username/.fluxbox/menu

something you might want to consider is making a new file for your menu, like i made a my-menu and just added that to the init file...helps to avoid menu getting all messed up through updates and such.

just change:

session.menuFile:    ~/.fluxbox/menu

to:

session.menuFile:    ~/.fluxbox/my-menu

best of luck
