Description Marcus Schätzle 2010-07-15 22:31:44 UTC

lxappearance does not close properly when I close its window, the windows is indeed closed but lxappearance remains active as a process, so I have to use killall. I don't use LXDE, but openbox with some Xfce components, lxappearance is the only LXDE component I use. I tried with Lubuntu, and lxappearance is closing properly there. The remaining lxappearance process doesn't "go wild" and uses much cpu time and memory, but it simply remains active.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start lxappearance
2. Close lxappearance via closing the window
3. Check via pidof if lxappearance is still active

Actual Results:  
lxappearance window is closed, but the process isn't

Expected Results:  
lxappearance process should have been terminated

Comment 1 Marcus Schätzle 2010-07-16 08:43:04 UTC

I wanted to test this now with a test installation of LXDE inside Gentoo (not just others like Lubuntu). The issue is not happening inside LXDE, it happens only when I run lxappearance outside an LXDE session, in my case when I start an openbox session via startx.
I am not sure if this bugreport should better be done upstream then, but I leave it here for now, since I did not have any such comparison (starting lxappearance outside and inside an lxde session) with another distribution yet.

Comment 2 Marcus Schätzle 2010-07-16 08:55:19 UTC

OK I saw now that there is an option for an openbox session login inside Lubuntu and I could reproduce the bug there. So this is something for upstream and I set the status accordingly.
