anyone else getting the following error message after ROX-session starts?: "Window manager warning: Failed to open a connection to a session manager, so window positions will not be saved: SESSION_MANAGER environment variable not defined." is this an installation problem, or is ROX not compliant with current X-session protocol? i'm on RedHat9. thanks! -p |

A session Manager saves the position of running programs, so when you log in again, it loads them up. Rox-Session doesn't do this, therefore doesn't set the variable which tells the wm what to do with the session info. I get around it by having a script in my ROX-session dir with: #!/bin/sh exec &>/dev/null metacity=20 chmod a+x then use it as the window manager in the rox-session prefs. This stops error messages from metacity coming up on the screen Alastair --- who is just going to wiki this, as he has told people of the fix many times ;-) --=20 (o< - A l a s t a i r P o r t e r //\ =20 V_/_ ala...@li... |
