startx won't work with openbox, because in /etc/X11/Sessions/openbox the #!/bin/bash is missing. Added that, now it works. I would have asked the IRC people where to file this properly, but the real people are upset with me as usual. So my apologies for pestering whoever has to sort this out. I'm on musl (dev). OpenRC, no systemd. x11-wm/openbox Installed versions: 3.6.1-r5(3)(23:11:39 07/30/23)(imlib -branding -debug -nls -session -startup-notification -svg -xdg PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python3_11 -python3_10") If there's anything else you need let me know. Should it turn out this was my fault, I apologize for wasting your time. Though I can't see how. I didn't mess with the /etc/X11/Sessions/ files. Thanks for reading.
Yeah, it seems to need a shebang.
(In reply to Sam James from comment #1) > Yeah, it seems to need a shebang. Glad I could help.
From /etc/X11/chooser.sh: ``` [...] if [ -n "${XSESSION}" ]; then if [ -f /etc/X11/Sessions/${XSESSION} ]; then if [ -x /etc/X11/Sessions/${XSESSION} ]; then GENTOO_EXEC="/etc/X11/Sessions/${XSESSION}" else GENTOO_EXEC="/bin/sh /etc/X11/Sessions/${XSESSION}" fi elif [ -n "${GENTOO_SESSION}" ]; then if [ -x "${GENTOO_SESSION}" ]; then GENTOO_EXEC="${GENTOO_SESSION}" else GENTOO_EXEC="/bin/sh ${GENTOO_SESSION}" fi else [...] ``` So a file in /etc/X11/Sessions with just the path that's *not* executable is fine, but if it's executable, it's reasonably treated as a script. Oops. There's a bunch of other examples in tree which I'll check now.

Please leave personal comments out of it, thanks.
