    Question Anyone else running Openbox in 13.10?

    Or am I the only one, all on my lonesome?

    I find bugs that I'm only getting in Openbox, and it would be nice to be able to check if anyone else is having the same experience.

    But if that's not possible, then it's the price I pay for going off in unusual directions.

    What bugs are you talking about? I just installed openbox to see what you're talking about and I'm finding it stable.

    Specifically, I've had some problems with synaptic package manager that don't occur in my Xfce or Unity installs.

    Edit: Bug numbers might be useful.

    These bugs are specific to ubuntu not to the Openbox source code itself, I'd personally recompile a .deb but it's been a decade since I've done any debian packaging.

    I've compiled it from source and these 2 issues don't exist but DO exist from the packaged version.

    I've compiled it on arch, gentoo, source mage, and ubuntu but I usually find .deb to be stable...
