Question Blackbox on MDK 8.2


Me again....

in my many adventures w/ MDK 8.2, i've noticed an annoying think about blackbox. there's no logout option on the menu. i have to kill X to get out.

Isn't that annoying....

Can it be fixed?

Right click with your mouse and under either "blackbox" or "windowmanager" there as a point called exit.

I've never seen the exit facility in blackbox either
I'm looking for it too.
I only can switch windowmanagers

so is it possible to post a part of your (lucky guess: /etc/X11/blackbox/blackbox-menu) where the exit line is located ?

kthnx

Here it is:

[submenu] (Blackbox) {}
[begin] (Debian)
[exit] (Exit)
[reconfig] (Reconfigure)
[restart] (Restart)
[submenu] (Themes) {}
[begin] (Debian)
[include] (/usr/share/blackbox/styles/stylesmenu)
[end]

You should try Fluxbox, most people like it much better than Blackbox.
