Release Switch GUI: Openbox


I did that, the fault is the change of kbd layout back to default and openbox is what pops up, using 95% of the cpu
Okay, in that case you'll need to delve inside those apps, and do what's termed profiling on them.  I suspect there are enough symbols in the openbox exes to mean you shouldn't need the source or any debug files to get basic profiling working on them, but I'll have to leave how you'd do it specifically to you, as I don't use openbox, and I'd have to refresh my memory on profiling compiled programs anyway. But even if you profile it and find out what functions it's spending its time in, you'll then need the source so you can read what those functions are doing.
xmodmap ~/.pndXmodmap is what makes the 95% spike in cpu (below is .pndXmodmap contents)

I've searched this thread and can't seem to find an answer. I've used OB for some time, however, I've never gotten it completely to my liking. I'd like to display the date and time and in general, get the hang of the tint2 and warlock bars. I've fooled with the settings, but no joy. Icons show up on the left of my screen which is OK, but the only ones that show up are the battery time/percentage, network, bluetooth and icons for any apps that are running. I can't seem to get the clock to show up. Any ideas? Thanks.
If you start the Tint2 Panel Wizard (in Openbox Config), there is a Clock Tab. Click it. Make sure the show option checkbox on the first line is checked and then check the appropriate Time Format option. Should be all that is necessary.....
 
Hello Openbox Maintainer,

Is there going to be an update to make openbox work better with zaxxon 1.61?

Thanks,

Shenmue
Bump. It works more or less fine, but with each system update, I need to overwrite /usr/pandora/scripts/op_menu.sh with the one from OpenBox. I think you should let the OpenBox installer make a file op_menu_custom.sh or something like that.

Still not the best solution though.

I would actually prefer to have OpenBox in the default firmware -- it's small enough, and useful enough.
 
After the last few updates, the PND Installer item on the main menu no longer works. I can access PND Manager under the Settings menu. Thanks.

The PNDStore was removed from the firmware on purpose, it was un-maintained and most people ended up using PNDManager anyway. Yet for some the icon still lingers, it stopped showing on mine after some update..
 
Right, I think removing PND Store was a great idea, however, previously, the PND Installer linked to PND Manager. Now it does nothing. I would like for it to launch PND Manager. Thanks.
 
To get PND Installer to work again under Zaxxon 1.61 , modify lines 359 to 362 of the shell script file called  openbox-functions in /usr/bin to be exactly as follows:

pndmanager=$(grep "^Exec" /usr/share/applications/pndmanager-bzar#0.desktop)

if [ ! "$pndmanager" ]

then

pndmanager=$(grep "^Exec" $HOME/Desktop/pndmanager-bzar#0.desktop)
