They say the memory goes first :-)). So I checked some more and am answering my own question....
I had actually sent a msg to a new fluxbox convert several months ago. My knowledge, in turn came from something Derek had posted. Anyhow, to get fluxbox to see your 'startup' script you need a line in the ~/.fluxbox/init config file that says: session.screen0.rootCommand ~/.fluxbox/startup The file 'startup' must be executable. Works fine now.
