Bug Description
Normally i install debian, xubuntu, manjaro and so, always with icewm fluxbox openbox jwm windowmaker even blackbox
In several previous installations I have noticed that starting windowmaker, and only with windowmaker, the startup script (/home/
Trying to get around this, I've tried various tricks like starting the script with:
if [ -f $HOME/.startuplock ]; then exit ; fi
echo "Startup script is running!" >$HOME/.startuplock
sleep 5; rm $HOME/.startuplock
...
without much result
Now i have installed archlinux (Janury 2023) and the same problem has appeared
Investigating more, I discovered what the startup script run twice because windowmaker start twice.
So to try, I removed Lightdm and installed the old Slim display manager, and later lxdm... and the problem was solved with either of these two
