[oclug] idesk & fluxbox

Hi all,
I'm presently running fluxbox as my wm and it's really cool, but I miss 
not having icons on my desktop, especially for my family. I change 
desktops periodically and they're not sure how the menus work when I go 
from one to the other, so icons are a big plus.

I've downloaded idesk, but I can get it to run with fluxbox. I've read 
the docs on it and even tried the example files, but it just doesn't 
want to work. If I try to start it using fbrun, it doesn't start.

I have the mandatory ~/.idesktop and ~/.ideskrc directories with the 
proper files in them, but it still doesn't work. Any ideas, or perhaps 
some example files? Thanks.
