wesnoth buttons don't work in fluxbox


Hey I just installed the wesnoth slackbuild. Then I tried to play it and it starts fine but when I click the buttons nothing happens.

So I tried exiting and used xwmconfig to switch to KDE from fluxbox. In KDE the buttons work.

I think this is weird. Anybody know what the deal is? I guess I can just switch to KDE whenever I want to play wesnoth.

Who wrote the SlackBuild script? Sounds like an error in the script
and maybe you should start by contacting it's author.

I'm the current maintainer of Wesnoth, but it's based on the previously working script by someone else.
FYI, i only have KDE on my desktop, so i tested it on KDE. Pardon me for not testing it on other WM.

If you have any suggestion about the SlackBuild script on SBo, feel free to contact me

I think it has to do with this bug : http://gna.org/bugs/?14770 and http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugre...?bug=565788#19
It's not Wesnoth-specific bug, but it's related to sdl
