hello all,

has anyone got skippy to work under the most recent version of fluxbox? 
the skippy homepage (http://thegraveyard.org/skippy.php) says that it
should.

i followed the instructions about creating the .skippyrc file.  when i try
to launch skippy, i get the following errors:

~> skippy

X Error of failed request:  BadAccess (attempt to access private resource

  Serial number of failed request:  92
  Current serial number in output stream:  92

the author's usage instructions don't say anything about actually
launching skippy, whether via a terminal or .xinitrc.  i have the feeling
that i missed a step somewhere along the way.

any help would be appreciated.


thanks!
