First of all i'm from Poland/Europe so my english can sometimes be weird or not valid.
I have a problem with putting icons on my fluxbox 0.9.13 desktop with idesk / fbdesk / fbsetbg / fbpager
i emerged them yesterday so they are up to date
first i tried idesk, nice app, has some useful options but when i use idesk i have these problems:
- when i change the workspace with fbpager the icons dissappear, i must killall idesk and run it again to get the icons back, but when i switch the workspace with fbpager again they are gone again :)
- when i use idesk as my icon manager :P the FLuxbox biult in transparency just dont works, i have proper options added to xorg.conf, I have checked fluxbox.org manuals and FAQs but they dont help (i'm not saying about the XCOMPMGR / TRANSSET transparency), fluxbox transparency options dont work even with force transparency option enabled
when i run fbdesk i have a lot less troubles but they still are:
- the icons arent shaped (i'm not shure if i am telling this properly), icon image in PNG has a strange background, a square.
- the text at the bottom of the icon has grey background (like in ugly win95)
i cant figure / find out how to set these thing properly, i have been googleing for two days about this but havent found anything helpful so i ask all of YOU about that. now i will add my configuration files so U can check everything.
