 |
|
I'm using idesk for several firewall servers as a desktop environment in combination with fluxbox to place some icons on my desktop.
The last weeks I've installed a new machine and noticed, that I can only start ONE program at a time by clicking on an icon.
E.g. I open a xterm window. When I double click again on the xterm icon nothing happens - BUT: when I close the opened xterm window the new xterm window clicked before opens - this also happens if I e.g. open firefox - as long as firefox is opened I cannot start another program by clicking on the icon (e.g. xterm) but I'm able to launch xterm by selecting it from the fluxbox menu when doing a right click on the desktop.
Can anybody help? I also noticed this problem on my other machines running fluxbox with idesk. And I know, that half a year ago I was able to open multiple programs by clicking on an icon on the desktop. I don't know when this bug first occured.
I'm thankful for every hint you have...
Andreas
