Currently I am mixing and matching stuff, starting what I want to run from a .xsession file in my home directory. My .xsession file looks like this: # Begin .xsession gnome-settings-daemon & gnome-panel & #skippy & docker -iconsize 64 & wmifs -i eth0 & wmwave & wmifs -i eth2 & wmmon & wmnetselect -e /usr/bin/firefox -t & fbpager -w & wallpaper-tray & kmix & kmixctrl --restore & exec fluxbox #End .xsession Since I am using Gnome panel, visibility of the fluxbox panel is set to false, and using kmix this way you have to edit ~/.kde/share/config/kmixrc setting Visible=false or kmix has this annoying habit of popping up every time you log in instead of waiting until you click it's tray icon.
