Using root account openbox/lxpanel config files

    Alrighty I had a few mins to get down and try to work on this. If I copy all of the directories I don't already have in the /home/chris_2/.config from /root/.config and chmod the permissions to allow read write for my chris_2 account all seems to work pretty well. I have to run "lxpanel" as a command out of xterm to activate it. Where is the script that is executed on login that lets me add the lxpanel command to my login?

    /home/chris_2/.config/openbox/autostart.sh
    /home/tux/.config/openbox/autostart.sh
    /root/.config/openbox/autostart.sh
    /etc/xdg/openbox/autostart.sh

    Hi mojo. I check my autostart.sh looks like this inside the /.config/openbox folder for the chris_2 acct.:
    # DBUS message bus (automount removable devices)
    dbus-launch --exit-with-session &

    # Handle Hal events with Ivman (notification with desktopbox).
    ivman &

    # Start PCmanFM as daemon for Wallpaper and desktop icons.
    pcmanfm -d &

    # Start the Freedesktop panel standard menu.
    lxpanel &

    # Start Parcellite clipboard manager.
    parcellite &

    # Launch Xpad desktop notes utility.
    #xpad &

    # Desktop effects composer.
    xcompmgr -c -r 10 &

    # Set a background image using hsetroot (depends on imlib2).
    hsetroot -fill /usr/share/images/slitaz-background.png &

    # Background color with xsetroot.
    xsetroot -solid "#222222" &

    When I login, it just gives me the mouse and a blank screen. To actually see the desktop graphics / icons /etc. I have to right click, use "Open folder" and select Desktop.
    Then I have to start xterm and type 'lxpanel' to get that. The account has some pointer that should be hitting this autostart.sh file that it's not looking at.

    Any thoughts?

    Try to copy file /root/.xsession to your home folder. Change user:group to your account.

    Click menu -> Preferences -> Wallpaper and set all three checkboxes up.

Howdy, Stranger!
