You need not reconfigure openbox if you have rebooted.

Sorry, that's over my head, hope someone else can help you with that. Other than the touchpad, are things looking okay so far?rabidfox wrote:I plugged in a mouse, and its right click brings up the menu.
Sadly, no reply from the touchpad. Now we know what it is! But how to fix it?
Re: Fresh install, Openbox no menu, no keyboard shortcuts re
Everything else is beautiful, thanks! I'm glad I finally was able to get this through EFI bootloader hell.

Re: Fresh install, Openbox no menu, no keyboard shortcuts re
How about reading https://wiki.debian.org/SynapticsTouchpad ?
And in my case, I put the lines about A-Q after "<!-- Keybindings for window switching -->"

Re: Fresh install, Openbox no menu, no keyboard shortcuts re
Ergh. I tried moving it to after the window switching section, to the window section, but still no dice of course.
I have this kind of touchpad:
It is only the right click that doesn't work.

I tried this:
"adding these lines to /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf underneath MatchIsTouchpad 'on'"

But it didn't work.

Option "TapButton3" "3"
But it didn't work.
