Re: StarOffice and Fvwm95
Two things:
1. You could include the full path.
2. Environment variables. If you are using xdm to start X, you
can "source sd.sh" (or whatever filename your use) in your
$HOME/.xsession file to set the environment as you log in.
Then your menu should work. Or if those variables are set or
sourced by .bashrc (or equal) you can just source .bashrc.
I am not sure if this is an issue when you start X with the startx
script. But if so, it should be able to be cured in a similar manner.
