From what I remember they'd start out with 1 desktop, then I'd install obconf and turn it up. Ones that came with obconf in the image never went over 1 desktop no matter how much I've fiddled. I thought this was in the panel file, lately I've discovered in the rc file (/etc/xdg/openbox/rc.xml) a section that reads like
Code: Select all
<desktops>
<!-- this stuff is only used at startup, pagers allow you to change them
during a session
these are default values to use when other ones are not already set
by other applications, or saved in your session
use obconf if you want to change these without having to log out
and back in -->
<number>5</number>
<firstdesk>1</firstdesk>
<names>
<!-- set names up here if you want to, like this:
<name>desktop 1</name>
<name>desktop 2</name>
-->
</names>
<popupTime>875</popupTime>
<!-- The number of milliseconds to show the popup for when switching
desktops. Set this to 0 to disable the popup. -->
</desktops>
Most of my files involved seem to have several slightly different versions like the names were typos, I don't know what's up with that. Like /etc/xdg/openbox/rc.xml and /etc/xdg/openbox/LXDE/rc.xml What determines which ones actually get used? Does LXDE generate a dmesg type report?
