I recently upgraded to fedora 7 and switched to fluxbox as my system seems to be slow in gnome. Everything seems to be fine except that the key bindings I set only work sometimes.
I think it must have something to do with the log in process. Sometimes it works after I log in and sometimes not. If it works after I log in, then it will work until I log out. I've read some documentation and I think I configured it right.
I've checked that this line is in the init file
Code:
session.keyFile: ~/.fluxbox/keys
This is the part of the keys file that I defined
Code:
Mod4 l :Exec xscreensaver-command -lock
Mod4 f :Exec firefox
Mod4 r :Exec fbrun
Mod4 e :Exec nautilus --no-desktop --browser
This if the part of the startup file since the problem seems to be related to the log in process
Code:
mail-notification &
gaim &
xscreensaver &
# And last but not least we start fluxbox.
# Because it is the last app you have to run it with ''exec'' before it.
exec /usr/bin/fluxbox
I am using gdm.
Thanks for advices. It's quite annoying as now I need to log in and out several times till it works. The good thing is that I only log out every few weeks.
