openbox-svn6175 wired problem [solved]

I have a wired problem with the new openbox-svn revision.

I use pypanel and e.g i open urxvt and firefox, and will switch from firefox to urxvt I can't get urxvt in the foreground, only when I start first firefox , then urxvt, switch to firefox and then to urxvt.

I hope you understand what I mean..

Same here. Urxvt launches as minimized / background.

Why does obconf2 and openbox-svn always break with every update? I thought they hardly ever change anything in those progs ^^

Since you're using svn code expect things to brake sometimes. If this happens, please report a bug or contact the developers.

In case of Openbox you can find the bugtracker at http://bugs.icculus.org/ and the developers are usually sitting in #openbox on irc.oftc.net.

I know this, but before I report a BUG I will check if this problem is only related to me...or not..

So are you saying they still develop Openbox? /end sarcasm Love OB3 tho <3

Edit: I kinda mean that OB seems ready and always stable so what are they doing to break things? Is obconf2 just so much different than obconf1 that it always breaks?

Yeah, quite recently the original developer came back and started doing _a lot_ of work on ob. Quite some bugs got fixed and if you look closely, we got some nice new features... Also be prepared for a lot of fancy new stuff to come.

It is not obconf2 that breaks, it is ob that makes obconf2 break. Openbox has some libraries (for rendering themes, parsing config files, etc.) and obconf2 makes use of that and every time some api changes happen (quite often recently) obconf2 breaks.

Quick answer, but no good answer because pypanel development is dead..
