Re: [rox-users] ROX-Filer 2.1.3

[Reuben F. <re...@so...>]

Thanks for your response. I'm not sure I follow your question, though.
How would I determine "how I'm trying to close it"? Again, I can exit
fluxbox back to gdm if, and only if, rox has been manually terminated.
Otherwise, the fluxbox "exit routine" suddenly cannot cope. I am
starting rox using rox -p, but there are no other copies running (e.g.
rox -n).

Thanks
