I know this is a crappy answer, but I would either ask this on a bb/flux mailing list or forum (or head to #fluxbox on OPN (or whatever it's called now). If that fails, try asking on a KDE forum or list. My bet though is you'll find an answer in a flux forum or list. Perhaps try gentoo's forum in the desktop environment section. -J >>> drake at lemongecko.org 03/26/03 09:09PM >>> No one responded the first time I posted this, so I'll try again: I'm having a weird problem trying to use KDE with fluxbox. When I startup KDE and tell it to use fluxbox (by setting KDEWM=fluxbox), it starts up the KDE desktop as a single, large window that covers the fluxbox toolbar and slit. You can resize/move/kill this window and get to the usual fluxbox stuff behind it (see screenshot at [1]). I want all the KDE stuff *except* the desktop because I like the usual fluxbox desktop. I've looked in the startkde script, but it doesn't start the desktop -- something else in the startup process does. Does anyone know how I could configure KDE to do everything but start the desktop?
