Perhaps something like: |
9 |
|
10 |
[app] (name=gkrellm) |
11 |
[Workspace] {0} |
12 |
[end] |
13 |
|
14 |
instead of: |
15 |
|
16 |
[Workspace] {7} |
17 |
|
18 |
in your ~/.fluxbox/apps file? Or may be you have a [Jump] {yes} command in |
19 |
there too? Not sure if something similar in ~/.fluxbox/startup could cause |
20 |
this symptom, so have a look in there just in case. |

Emerge lm_sensors and then run sensors to see what's what. |

|
32 |
I am guessing the k10temp is the core temperature of the CPU and the it87 the |
33 |
chip temperature sensors (3-off) from ACPI? |
