Openbox autostart not starting [Solved]

[Kermit the Frog]

Ok, mine shows

-rwxr-xr-x

So, add the x (execution bit):

Code: Select all

chmod +x autostart

(When you opened a terminal within that folder)

or just:

Code: Select all

chmod +x ~/.config/openbox/autostart

Yes, one more typo here:

xset -dpms 0 0 0 &

They also don't need the ampersand.

[Kermit the Frog]

Yep.

Looks like its working now had to change gnome polkit to lxpolkit.
Thank you very much for all the help and the comments

/usr/lib/polkit-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1) &

Change to this for root access.

Code: Select all

/usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 &

Amazing yes all is working now thank you so much.

[Kermit the Frog]

Glad to hear it's working now.

You can even add 1-2 more tricks, if you like only:

Code: Select all

#For some transparency (in terminal etc.)
xcompmgr -C -n &

#Sound
/usr/bin/pipewire-start &

#Start fehbg to get last background selected
~/.fehbg

( sudo apt install xcompmgr )

thats very intresting have you got
good experience with pipewire?
I remember it was not working in a past
with handbrake had to revert it to
pulseaudio true to be told that wasnt
MX Linux.

This Pc purpouse is just to run two programs gtk-pipe-viewer and vlc did not even realised that pipewire is the default sound server on it.

[Kermit the Frog]

Not that I like Pipewire, just it's the default on MX-23 and it (the whole sound) gets broken if you install pulseaudio (at least here) and try to make it as in MX-21 and before...

Previously I used to use Alsa only (& Volume icon), simple, even not Pulseaudio :) : "Bitperfect" .

[nandi]

yes the volumeicon thats why my Mx 21 got changed to pulseaudio back then i remember now.
What do you use as a volume indicator?
