I can open them ok, i was just wandering if it was possible to have them appear where the current "load" graphic is now.

As i say, there is the tag "swallow" listed on the jwm site, but i cant get it to work (wrong version of jwm??).

Failing that, I would at least like to speed up the refresh rate of the current "load" graphic....

Thanks again!

Is there any way of incoporating the fluxbox wm apps into jwm?? i would really like to be able to see net traffic and the cpu load box is too slow. I had a look around and tried using "swallow", but i failed to get it to work, other than this, jwm is cool!

p.s. I cant see any help in the config section of the jwm site for the "load" tag - am i missing somthing??

Thanks for any help!

the load tag is now missing because in the latest version of jwm you swallow the xload application.  the load window was hardcoded before in versions 0.24 and prior.  DSL is currently using jwm v0.24.  the latest is v1.1

Thanks jwm advocate....my current set up has the cpuload sat on top of xload in sticky state, this seems to be the best "solution".

Thanks to everyone for getting JWM working with DSL- it is the WM of choice in my low ram system!  :)

Actually I backported the root menu options from jwm 1.0 into jwm 0.24 that we are presently using. At the time of release jwm 1.0 had several issues and we had no idea of the timeline of 1.1. So even though you see the change on the onroot tag it is not 1.0 or 1.1. The onroot tag is the only change that I back ported. We will be monitoring the progress of jwm and update when appropriate. You can always see the version of jwm by opening a shell window and running jwm -version

We selected jwm for its low consumption of resources. It indeed is very nice and fits the philosopy of DSL.
