1. root access is commented out so now the user can't mount other hard drives on their system easily.

will change that soon thanks for that!

2. two different conky's are launched at boot

That is by design, you could change it in $HOME/.fluxbox/startup

3. resolution is hard set to 1080 at boot. everything was ginormous on my 1440 monitor.

That is by design, you could change it in $HOME/.fluxbox/startup

4. all programs are set to open maximized

That is not true, some apps have a profile set in $HOME/.fluxbox/apps feel free to edit them

5. logout button (top right) doesn't work.

Thanks i will fix that or remove the button

6.can't switch desktops using the mouse wheel.

Right, but you could configure that in $HOME/.fluxbox/scripts/bl-hotcorners/bl-hotcorners
i mean it is not programing anymore at this point - my gues is that it will be button4 and button5

but most important of all

7. right-click root menu doesn't work. that is what makes fluxbox, fluxbox.

Right, you could add it back by editing $HOME/.fluxbox/keys with RootMenu on left-click on desktop:

Menu Commands
These commands open or close fluxbox popup menus. For more information on what these menus contain or how
to configure them, see fluxbox(1).

RootMenu
Opens the root menu. See ROOT MENU in fluxbox-menu(5) for details.

or you can click on bottom task bar (first triangle) to get the menu

I'm quite familiar with fluxbox having used it for 20+ years now. I'm just saying it doesn't feel like fluxbox anymore.

Hi,

Can anyone explain to me, how to make a bootable ISO from this five 7z-file ? (I usually use Double Commander for extracting, but of course, it will be OK made by terminal orders. )

I use an up-to-date MX Live system running from an USB stick.
( Of course, 7zip, p7zim, p7zip-full packages are installed. )

I have already downloaded these five 7z-files, and using Double Commander I could extract the first of them (Desktop.7z.001), but I couldn't extract the others. The extracted file consists of 2 files: an MDM5 checksum file (of a 61 byte size) and an ISO-file (of a 3.319 GB size)

I would like to make the final ISO of Fluxbox+ (from one or more of these 5 file).

Is there some merging trick should I do to gain a single bootable ISO file, which has all the parts of the newest Fluxbox+ ?

Thanks in anticipation.

I used xarchiver to combine all the parts into one ISO.
