-Current, Networkmanager and libnotify problem.


Hi, I've had a problem when starting X. I'm using -current with fluxbox and before I connect to my network with NetworkManager I can select an application on my fluxbox menu and it works but when I connect with NetworkManager I click on an application and nothing happens although it let's me log out of the session.

I get this message.

Code:
Current version of pixman: 0.34.0
        Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org
        to make sure that you have the latest version.

I get it working again by reinstalling libnotify and starting up fluxbox then all is fine.

Think I've sorted it, commented out line in ~/.fluxbox/startup

Code:
# Change your keymap:
#xmodmap "/home/sixx/.Xmodmap"
