Is it possible we can get that red icon that was used prior the recent MXFB update for the Settings Manager icon on the tint2 panel back (third from the left).
This is what my modified (weather/calendar) tint2rc panel looks like now.
To me, it looks like two instances of Application Finder with one of them having some sort of blue overlay added.

As a good citizen, I try to live as close to the edge of what works on Debian, just so folks get early stress testing (and because much of what I use can't wait like a good wine to mature/stablize).
Anyway, I'm glad to see you are also having success.
@manyroads As a home desktop user, I am, and I am so grateful to the coders/developers/maintainers of MXL to release a stand-alone version of Fluxbox to their line-up. Flux will always remain near and dear to my heart.

I ended up editing the custom-toolbox-mxfb.desktop file to have the icon point to mxfb-settings.svg instead of custom-toolbox.svg.

Monitor brightness setting doesn't work for me on my laptop in Fluxbox. Its set to maximum by default.
It works if I install other desktop environments like Cinnamon DE.

Fluxbox is a window manager, not a desktop environment. Have you tried All Apps>Settings>Brightness Systray?

The app doesn't even launch.
It might be specific to my hardware only, again I tested this only in a live environment since I have only one Laptop with me.
Can you tell if it works for you, the brightness settings?

Selecting 'brightness systray' would trigger a brightness icon showing up in the systray - and leftclicking it should show you a panel to adjust brightness and backlight levels.

I did recently update the brightness-systray app with a fix to an issue where the app opened off-screen on fluxbox.

Yes, it worked for me.
