[LUG] Fluxbox

 

I thought I would have a look at fluxbox. I run Kubuntu Gutsy. It 
installed fine. No menu with right-click. Saw lots of suggestions via 
Google, most of which seemed unnecessarily complicated. Anyway, finally 
ran sudo update-menus and then right-click worked as expected.

I was surprised that neither Firefox nor Thunderbird appear in the 
menus, at least I have not found them yet. I have added them as keyboard 
short cuts.

I have seen suggestions that I should add rox as a file manager. Another 
idea was thunar. I am wondering now, why would I need to add a file manager?

Any one on the list that has used fluxbox? Any comments, suggestions, 
thoughts please?

TIA

Neil Winchurst
