hello john, it is important to place 'exec blackbox' in the end of your list in ~/.xinitrc, 'gkrellm -w &' for example makes gkrellm start in tthe slit, same with 'bbpager -w &'. bbrun does it automatically. hope this solved your problem. this is how my .xinitrc looks like: imwheel -k bbpager & bbrun & gkrellm -w & exec blackbox
