[SOLVED] xcompmgr, feh and openbox don't play nice

Hey,
I started using Openbox with xcompmgr a few days ago. I start xcompmgr in .xinitrc, then a few apps later Openbox (see .xinitrc file). Problem is, xcompmgr paints my background gray. Calling feh later doesn't paint a new background image. I read in the wiki that the problem is with xcompmgr and the solution is to use hsetroot (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xco … Openbox.29).  This doesn't solve the problem for me. All it does is paint my background before xcompmgr repaints it gray. If it matters, my login manager's SLIM and this is my .xinitrc:
#!/bin/sh
# ~/.xinitrc
# Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)
hsetroot -solid "#000066"
xcompmgr -cfF && feh --bg-scale /home/gal/Pictures/fiji.JPG &
tint2 &
tilda &
gnome-power-manager &
xscreensaver --no-splash &
sleep 5
feh --bg-scale /home/gal/Pictures/fiji.JPG &
conky -b &
exec ck-launch-session openbox-session
# exec startkde
# exec startxfce4
# ...or the Window Manager of your choice
Any comments about how to sole this problems are welcome.
EDIT: The sleep 5 statement was to try to make feh work by giving it some brake. Sadly it did not help.

I use similar settings to yours, but:
- they are in ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh
- no "hsetroot"
- nitrogen, instead of feh
Besides: why did you place xcompmgr and feh on the same line? Did you try with two different lines, one for each command?

  • [SOLVED] MPD and Mplayer don't play nice

    At the moment, I have to kill the MPD process in order to get MPlayer to play sound, otherwise a 'resource is busy' type message comes up.
    I'm using alsa and using self compiled Mplayer (from svn).
    Any suggestions?

    In /etc/mpd.conf, go to the "audio_output" section and comment the lines "device" and "format" (thoses lines are marked as optionnal).
    Now restart mpd, and it will work as any other alsa application.
    Ah worked like a charm! Thanks bud

  • Enigmail and GnuPG Don't Play Nice With Permissions

    In Thunderbird, I've got Enigmail to handle my GPG shit. The problem is that Enigmail needs to read .gnupg/private-keys-v1.d
    STRING is the random string in the filename, I don't know if that is sensitive. If anyone can tell me what that is, bonus kudos.
    enigmail> /usr/bin/gpg --charset utf-8 --display-charset utf-8 --batch --no-tty --status-fd 2 --import /home/c0rtex/.gnupg/private-keys-v1.d/STRING.key
    gpg: can't open '/home/c0rtex/.gnupg/private-keys-v1.d/STRING.key': Permission denied
    Anyways, it works fine if I change the permissions of .gnupg
    However, the Arch wiki states that the permissions for .gnupg should be 700 and the files be 600 (which they are now). Otherwise gpg spits out a warning message. I don't know how big a deal this really is, there isn't much to be gained if my encrypted email were comprimised. But I try to implement best security practices on principal.
    I'm feel this has to be an easy solution, change enigmails access privilidges?

    The way I read the table at that link, the driver is already installed in Leopard -- so there is a chance that what you downloaded isn't as good as what shipped with Leopard.
    In fact, clicking on the yes** in the table yields these instructions:
    +If your printer is listed as bundled on Mac OS X 10.5, follow these instructions to install the printer.+
    +Do not install the driver found on the installation CD or do not download and install driver found on the web. Refer to instructions below on recovering driver from Mac OS X 10.5 CD.+
    +Plug and play+
    +* Power on you printer.+
    +* Plug the USB cable to your printer and to your Mac.+
    +* The OS will automatically create the printer queue.+

  • Chromium and sound don't play nice together

    Arch64, Chromium from the repos.
    Long story short, if I play a YouTube video or anything similar, suddenly I can't play ANY sounds elsewhere until I close the browser down again.
    Example: listening to music via MPD. I open a YouTube video. It doesn't play. I stop my music and watch the video. Once the video's done, I can't play any music until I shut down Chromium.

    Working fine here - mpg123 playing a tune, youtube (flash, not html5) in chromium.
    IIRC, this is because the flash plugin defaults to 'old' OSS i.e. using alsa oss emulation. Unload and blacklist the snd-*-oss modules and try again.
    This works for me. If I don't have these modules blacklisted then I am able to reproduce the same problem as OP has. With the modules blacklisted everything works as it should.

  • ITunes and Motion don't play nice

    My problem is similar to this post from last year: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1699622&#1699622
    If I have iTunes playing a song or paused on a song, then switching to Motion from another application causes Motion to stall and beachball for 30 seconds to a minute. If iTunes is quit or if the music is "stopped," there is no problem. My library is about 75 GB.
    Can anyone think of why iTunes and Motion might have a conflict?

    i have this problem, too and posted a message months ago about it which received no helpful solution (or even corroboration for that matter). http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=475709&tstart=0
    in my prior thread, the application switch beachball was an afterthought for a larger issue.
    i'm just reaching out to this thread to confirm that someone else has the same issue.
    this issue has persisted with all updates of Motion v2 and iTunes v7 to date, as well as all versions of 10.4.
    i have no solution other than to close iTunes.

  • Flash Player 9 and IE don't play nice

    If you have a Flash movie with external calls, it crashes
    when you try to navigate to another web page. You will receive an
    'Out of Memory' error. This seems to be a problem with the way
    Flash Player 9 handles the unload Handler when the web page's
    javascript onUnload event is fired.
    I have experiened this with both IE6 and IE7 RC1.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?

    I came accross the same problem.
    As of today, the only source I could find that addresses the
    issue is:
    http://blog.deconcept.com/2006/05/18/flash-player-bug-streaming-content-innerhtml-ie/#comm ent-14544
    but their solution doesn't appear to be working reliably enough. I
    am still getting "Out of Memory at line:56" errors even when I use
    the suggested workaround.
    I hope that the next version of the Flash Player will include
    a fix for this.

  • I'm new to the Apple products. How can I view pdf files since Apple and Adobe don't play together?

    I'm new to the Apple products. How can I view pdf files and videos since Apple and Adobe don't play together? Also, what operating system does the iPhone use? I'm a Windows person.

    You may want to download and read the manual for your phone. It may answer a lot of the basic questions.
    http://support.apple.com/manuals/#iphone
    There is an app on your phone called "Mail". Yes, it's for reading your email.
    Best of luck.

  • I downloaded itunes update 10.5 and now all tunes I have downloaded from Walmart and Amazon don't play on my PC properly.  How can I fix this?

    I downloaded intues update 10.5 to my PC and now all the music I have downloaded from other venues, Walmart and Amazon don't play correctly.  How can this be corrected?  I am currently using windows XP. 

    I have an ITunes account.  I got it when I got my IPOD.  I've thought about upgrading, but I didn't see any reason to buy a newer IPOD because they all come with so much stuff I don't want/need.  I don't have my current IPOD filled yet and I really don't need an IPOD Touch that has capabilities that my Droid already has.  I don't need to be concerned with documents, mail, attaching to Facebook or playing games.  I can do all that on my phone.  I just want to maintain my music between 3 devices.
    So now that I see it is not to my benefit to have this product---can you point me in the direction to cancel this?  And how do I get my music back?  Will it show up once I cancel my account?

  • HT1657 What happens when you rent movies and they don't play? How come that question is not on the list?

    What happens when you rent movies and they don't play and you tried getting credit for it?  I rented two movies which they were very very old movies in black & white and they both don't play.  I never had this problem before even when downloading videos. Now how can I get credit for it?  I contact itunes a number of times and no one has done nothing as of yet.  Itunes also asked me for my order number which I sent them but still no credit.

        Great question MommaBof4! This is actually something that can be completed. VZW does have the option to turn this feature on or off based upon the users request. If you would like to update this feature on your device please give us a call by dialing *611 send from your VZW device, thanks!

    Hrmmm.... I don't know what to suggest then.
    You say that you've tried a couple other programs as well to the same effect...
    After a quick search on the wiki for "xcompmgr feh firefox", I found http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ope … te_desktop
    It said that xcompmgr is no longer being developed and suggest cairo comp mgr  (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30042) as an alternate.
    It could just be a bug with xcompmgr as well.  I don't use compositing, so I don't have a clue.  Sorry.

  • [SOLVED] Poweroff, suspend and hibernate don't work

    I installed Archlinux on my work desktop on Monday and can't get poweroff, suspend and hibernate to work. The command `systemctl poweroff` sort of works, except it doesn't actually turn off the computer. Suspend and hibernate don't work at all, the computer hangs on the terminal with a cursor on the top left corner of the screen. Here is the log from `journalctl`. There doesn't seem to be any error messages in it, as far as I can see.

    Thank you for your replies. Shutdown now doesn't turn the computer off either. About the type of system, I think it was custom built. This is a new install from Monday, so I didn't update the kernel. Poweroff, suspend and hibernate have never worked. The requested output:

  • JPA and SQL Server 2005's  Identity Don't Play Nice

    I am hoping someone with a little more senior knowledge of JPASQL Server 2005 can point me in the right direction involving SQL Server 2005.
    What I am discovering is JPA and SQL Server 2005 do not playing nice together when you use the IDENTITY capability for
    a primary key. Let me explain. "...when using the IDENTITY as the generator type, the value for the identity field MAY NOT be
    available BEFORE the entity data is saved in the database because typically it is generated when a record is committed."
    My problem is this.
    I have two separate entities using another entity, for example a car has a wheel and a truck has a wheel. I can go through the steps
    of persisting the car and the wheel with no problem. My problem begins when I try to
    find the wheel (by wheel description) for the truck. The query finds the wheel, but does not return the primary key for wheel.
    Therefore, using the PK inside a query generates this error:
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: An instance of a null PK has been incorrectly provided for this find operation. What has been my appraoch to get the entity to commit to the database is to use the following sequence for the Entity Manager.
    entityManager.persist(wheel);
    entityManager.flush(); I have assumed to this point this action would persist my data because I have been able to retrieve the PK immidately after these steps.
    However, multiple actions taking place within the same transaction, appears to render the persist and flush steps useless. My initial thought
    is to wrap the wheel creation within a new transaction so when the method/transaction completes, the data would be in the database. This
    has not worked.
    I hope I have explained this clear for others to follow. I apologize in advance if I have not. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

  • My songs on ipad have a red circle with a red square in the middle and they don't play anyone know what is happening?

    Several  songs have the cloud symbol with a red arrow and I think they play. But the ones with the red circle and red square in the center do not play. Can this be fixed> What does it mean?
    Thanks in advance,

    See this Apple support document.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1463
    You'll notice that the problem is usually associated with a failed/damaged hard drive, meaning you'll likely need to have your iPod serviced if you want to get it working again.
