Fix Openbox login from GDM in OpenSuse
Do you use GDM to log into Openbox on your OpenSuse box? In 11.1 I noticed a little hiccup.
In /usr/share/xsessions the openbox.desktop file resides and the option is there in GDM, and when you login, openbox comes right up. But nothing in your ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh file gets kicked off.
the application ‘openbox’ does not run autostart.sh, only ‘openbox-session’ does. So as root vim /usr/share/xsessions/openbox.desktop
and changes these lines:
Exec=openbox
TryExec=openbox
to
Exec=openbox-session
TryExec=openbox-session
Write-quit the file, log out and back in. Openbox should kickoff autostart.sh now.
