Re: Fluxbox, Debian menu

[Kristian Niemi <rance@mbnet.fi>]

Thanks, it got me a bit on the way, *but* ...
(There always has to be a `but', doesn't there?)

First of all I had to change the following line:
!include menu.h -- into: !include /etc/menu-methods/menu.h
Don't know if that's good/bad/doesn't matter...

Secondly, I get the following error:
update-menus[2189]: Running method: /etc/menu-methods/fluxbox
Warning: The string include-menu-defs did not occur in template file 
/etc/X11/fluxbox/system.fluxbox-menu

It's not really strange that it complains --- I don't have the file 
system.fluxbox-menu. Could you perhaps mail that one as well?

It feels like progress is made, but not quite there yet. ;)

Oh, and I had to (manually) create the directory /etc/X11/fluxbox (the 
fluxbox-part, that is).
