Re: Chromium, Chrome and Opera can't open links in dropdown menu

I apologize for reviving this rather old thread...
I have just started playing with MX 21 - Fluxbox.
The same issue with drop-down menus in MX 21 - Fluxbox, as I previously (almost two years ago) reported in antiX IceWM and antiX Fluxbox. This issue was reproduced by some other antiX users... In ...
