hey guys, i realized that with flux 0.9 (whitch is beautiful by the way) bbpager always starts up whenever flux does, and its not in the xinitrc or in the fluxinitrc?any ideas as to how to stop it? (p.s. i know ive been posting alot lately, so sorry if ive been a nuisance)

It's not started directly from (flu)xinitrc, but you'll notice an "enhance" command in there. This is a script that launches the pager and some dock apps.

where is the enhance script?i would like to lose bbpager as well, it doesnt look good on my 180 degree flipped desktop.
I'd post a screenshot, but my wallpaper is NWS (not work safe).

bbpager is the little window in the bottom left corner that shows a little tiny thumbnail picture of each virtual desktop.

And you can also click on the tiny "windows" in the bbpager to "move" them to different desktops. Nice way to unclutter a busy desktop.

You can do the same thing with desktop warping or the "send to workspace" feature.I could never understand the popularity of a desktop pager in Fluxbox, when hotkeys accomplish the same tasks with a fraction of the time and effort.
