Whew... 1.8 gig?  That is a huge one... Will dload it a bit later to look at it

What installer?  What build method? Do you not have an x64 machine?  Using V-Box you can build using x64 and x32
1.7 gig because, 1) it has some extra apps, 2) it is squashed by gz, rather than xz. With xz, it would be 1,4 gig. Build using a simple method; clearing up username, hostname, localtime etc from /etc, clearing up unnecessary files from /var, leaving /dev, /home, media, /mnt, /proc, /run, /sys and squashing the rest. Installer is adapted lmde one.

My machine is 64bit. This 32 bit install was there for a long time, starting from wheezy, moved to sid.

Thank you! :)

Hudson, maybe its better to pull those scripts from #! forums and paste them here. That forum is dormant, and might be closed in the near future.

For the reboot and poweroff, you don't need to write systemctl in front of them, as the executables are in /sbin and linked to systemctl..

Thanks pal.
Never thought of looking in /etc/skel/.fluxbox/startup Still new at FB. Lot to learn.
Yes, I tried Ceni.
The Exit didn't work. I posted a solution in another thread here, http://vsido.org/index.php?topic=1067.msg12163#msg12163
Also, you can see lot of solutions on session-logout here too, http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=438291#p438291

Some time would go by, until I catch up with Fluxbox.

You should have a system tray (tint2) in the upper right corner. The strut policy of that tint2 panel prevents the window from maximizing over the panel; the conky resides in the gap.
System tray wasn't there. I'd check about tint2 on top right corner. What about the tint2 on the bottom? Are there 2 tint2 panels?

Just change #!/usr/bin/env python to #!/usr/bin/env python2 in vsido-exit

First impressions;
1) conky stays stiff on top, and won't allow the fully opened window to overlap it,
2) there is no system tray,
3) tint2, if killed won't come back
Not complaining, just trying to learn FB and Vsido

Hello, VastOne, you've been doing this distro for so long and I didn't know. It was Snap, who showed me the way. I thank him for that. You won't recognize my nick, for it is new. I joined #! forums at the same time as you had. I had dropped #!, Debian and gone the Ubuntu way, trying out everything there, and finally stopping with the Ubuntu base on Openbox, which stayed with me for quite a while. I also have Arch with OB. I was using some of the #! scripts on them, some adapted for systemd. I am not a coder, but I used commonsense. Then, I heard of the demise of #!, but I was not that keen to jump back. Later, when I joined, I found how jumpy the mods/devs over there. Oh, Hudson would tell more about that. Joined the Bunsen forum for fun, and I'm glad I did so, as I found Snap, who directed me here. Better late than never.

I've also a Debian Sid on OB. I really like OB, but here I'm going to learn FB here. First I'd read the forums, then only I'll start asking questions. I'm already downloading Vsido 64 bit. Hello to all the guys here!
