 |
|
Hi,
I am set up a fluxbox system. But my problem is that i can't choose the themes in the styles menu, because it is empty.
Here some files from my System:
/home/username/.fluxbox/menu:
| Quote: | [...]
[submenu] (Styles) {Select a Style}
[include] (/usr/share/fluxbox/menu.d/styles/)
[end]
[...] |
ls /usr/share/fluxbox/menu.d/styles/
| Quote: | | styles-menu-commonbox styles-menu-fluxbox styles-menu-user |
/usr/share/fluxbox/menu.d/styles/styles-menu-fluxbox
| Quote: | [begin] (Fluxbox Core Styles)
[submenu] (Fluxbox Core Styles)
[stylesdir] (/usr/share/fluxbox/styles)
[end]
[end] |
ls /usr/share/fluxbox/styles
| Quote: | Artwiz BlueNight Clean Emerge LemonSpace MerleyKay Minimal Operation qnx-photon Results Spiff
BlueFlux Carbondioxide Cthulhain Flux Makro Meta Nyz Outcomes Rampage Shade Twicel |
If i had a prog for screenshots i would show you my Menu, but i don't.
Its something like:
| Code: |
|Fluxbox|
| xterm
|...
| fluxbox menu -> |fluxbox menu|
| Configure
| Styles -> |Select a Style| (gray, empty)
| ... |
|

Is yours like this ~/.fluxbox/menu
| Code: | [submenu] (fluxbox menu)
[config] (Configure)
[submenu] (Styles) {Select a Style}
[include] (/usr/share/fluxbox/menu.d/styles/)
[end] |
Inside that is;
styles-menu-commonbox
styles-menu-fluxbox
styles-menu-user

For what it is worth, I have always been using:
| Code: | ...
[submenu] (Fluxbox Styles) {Choose a style...}
[stylesdir] (~/.fluxbox/styles)
[separator]
[stylesdir] (/usr/share/fluxbox/styles)
[end]
... |
without any problem, although i must admit I like controlling my own menu file instead of allowing fluxbox_generate_menu to generate it.
You may wish to try using the [stylesdir]... syntax.

Let me say its... mysterious?
When I first tried vour approach i saw just a single style, which was installed in my .flucbox/styles directory. I couldn't see the others.
But when i copied everything from /usr/share/fluxbox/styles/ to that directory, I could access them.
Could the problem occur only with my special Filesystem?!?
I use a unionfs with a ramfs to save FS-changes and an underlaying ro-nfs-export. (and a pivot_root to that...)
I know thats quite an unusal combination, but it shouldn't have any effect ob fluxbox menus, right?!?

P.S.: To be clear:
I can see only styles in my locafolder, NOT in /usr... . The Menu under the seperator is still empty!
EDIT: P.P.S.:
I did the same with fluxmod because it could'nt be shown, too. so... cp /usr/.../fluxmod/ into my .fluxbox directory and it worked. shit. |

Hmmm... just to be sure: is /usr/share/fluxbox/styles readable by your normal user?
Alternatively, you may test to create a link to /usr/share/fluxbox/styles/XXX in your ~/.fluxbox/styles/XXX and see if that result in a useable fluxbox menu. |

here is my menu section for all fluxbox utils:
| Code: |
[submenu] (Fluxbox Menu)
[config] (Configure)
[submenu] (System Styles) {Choose a style...}
[stylesdir] (/usr/share/fluxbox/styles)
[end]
[submenu] (User Styles) {Choose a style...}
[stylesdir] (~/.fluxbox/styles)
[end]
|
and the directory attributes:
| Code: |
/usr/share/fluxbox/styles:
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 632 Nov 4 18:45 styles
~/.fluxbox/styles:
drwxr-xr-x 69 outspoken users 4096 Oct 26 13:03 styles
