Fluxbox rpm for fedora - grep420 - 2004-01-07
I have built a working rpm for fluxbox 0.1.14 for fedora. I was able to successfully install and run the newest fluxbox on fedora core1 with it. [/url][url=http://grep420.net/rpms/fluxbox-0.1.14-1.i386.rpm]http://grep420.net/rpms/fluxbox-0.1.14-1.i386.rpm.
If your default runlevel is 5 you need to add the session to dm. Here is an example of my session file. Make sure it is chmod 755 as well.
[root@xwing jsw34]# cat /etc/X11/dm/Sessions/fluxbox.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Fluxbox
Type=Application
Icon=
Exec=/usr/local/bin/fluxbox
[root@xwing jsw34]# ls -al /etc/X11/dm/Sessions/fluxbox.desktop
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 95 Jan 7 12:19 /etc/X11/dm/Sessions/fluxbox.desktop
For those of you with default runlevel 3, then you need to create an .xinitrc file in your home dir.
[jsw34@bullpen jsw34]$ cat ~/.xinitrc
#!/bin/bash
/usr/local/bin/fluxbox
don't forget to chmod +x ~/.xinitrc

Fluxbox rpm for fedora - Guest - 2004-01-17
I am an absolute linux-noob... I installed the RPM, and did the stuff to /etc/X11/dm/Sessions/fluxbox.desktop, but what do I do now? It currently loads KDE, do I need to keep it from executing kdm and have it load something else? This is proabaly a stupid question... :P
Fluxbox rpm for fedora - grep420 - 2004-01-18
pick a new session from the startup login screen.

i installed fluxbox on fedora too and it works. but when i start fluxbox from gdm it takes 2 minutes to launch (and 1 sec to launch from failsafe terminal)
is your flux starting fast?
Fluxbox rpm for fedora - anyweb - 2004-01-27
starts as fast as gnome and kde maybe faster
have you been messing with your hosts file by any cahnce,
something sounds wrong

First that is not the fluxbox website it is here: [/url][url=http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net]http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net, and second that is for an older fluxbox version (0.9.8). My rpm is the newest version of fluxbox (1.1.14)
