"A problem happened when binding Ctrl+º key" using openbox autostart

Open seth-- opened this issue 9 years ago • 5 comments

I'm using the git version. This happened since I started using guake, I think, with 0.5.0 and it also happens with the current code.

I want guake to auto start using ~/.config/openbox/autostart, but it gives me this error: A problem happened when binding Ctrl+º key https://github.com/Guake/guake/blob/7fdec8dfa4a70186c66cd527450325d5717e8917/src/guake/guake_app.py#L286

Tried using "sleep 20 && guake" and it doesn't work.

Tried with F12 instead of Ctrl+º and it works.

If I kill guake and start it again, it works.

If i take it from the autostart file and start it manually, it works too.

Here is my autostart script:

#!/bin/bash
sleep 5
guake -r "main" -e "cd ~/projects/..."
..
guake -n "hadoop" -r "hadoop" -e "ssh -X hduser@localhost"
guake -s 0

I had issue with metacity when the sleep is not executed.

Remember you may need to "disown" the complete sleep+guake in order to let your window manager initializes itself

should be started with something like

 autostart-guake.sh &

I was doing this: sleep 20 && guake &

It should be the same, right?

not sure if both commands are impacted

try

(sleep 20 && guake) &

Command works in current guake for me, are you still experiencing this issue?
