Hi

I am trying fluxter and I can compile it without problems. But when I
run it, I get the following error message:

./fluxter
Local fluxbox config file: "/home/rkrug/.fluxbox/fluxter.bb"
Cannot connect to window manager
***@ecolmod:~/source/fluxter-0.1.0$

Any help appreciated,

Rainer

Not much help, I'm afraid, Rainer - except to say I installed the deb verson
on Ubuntu Hardy, and got the exact same
error message - "cannot connect to window manager" :-(
For me, the best pager for Fluxbox is still the good old bbpager!
I am using fbpager and I am happy with it. Wjat tempted me was the
possibility to specify per-workspace backgrounds.

Well - I guess I have to live without it at the moment
