I config is pretty much separated on many files
It used to be OK, untill today, when i decided to make another file dedicated to menu (separated volume control)
When i start/restart fvwm ~/.fvwm/Config/menus/Sound.conf should be read, but it’s not
It never makes menus called MenuMixer, MenuMixerCD…
BUT, when i coppy paste line from ~/.fvwm/config that says that ~/.fvwm/Config/menus/Sound.conf should be read
Everything works great…
How can it be?
What did i miss?
Menu names are correct, it was working until i made a separate file for sound menu
I added new line in config, so that new file should be read on startup
And when i read file manually using EXACT line in console it works
I run FVWM 2.5.26 on FreeBSD 7
PS if you want me to post entire config to try and reproduce, Let me know
EDIT
Also i put that line last, to make sure, there’s nothing that deletes MenuMixer and yet no success
So look in ~/.xsession-errors for anything obvious.
Whilst I don’t see anything obvious from what you’ve posted, upload in a tarball or something your entire config – it’s likely something somewhere is overriding something else.
$ less fvwm.log
[fvwm][ParseBinding]: <<ERROR>> No such key: XF86AudioMedia
exec: trayer: not found
fetchmail: can't accept options while a background fetchmail is running.
EDIT… i copied file ~/.fvwm/Config/Sound.conf content back to ~/.fvwm/Config/User.conf, where it originally was. and everything works again
But i really want it separated
It all works fine for me – i get the menu created just fine adding in a reference to Config/menus/Sound.conf – no idea why it fails for you, works fine for me.
Now that is weird, and i even got read permissions (as i should)
Edit: Even when i Read it in console (it works) and then Delete it (also in console), and restart fvwm with function, if fails
Is there any kind of update menus function?
EDIT2: for some reason in my ~/.config there was no line that reads that dam file (how the hell it dissapeared… i was pressing ctr+s many times)
