[GRASS-user] (Linux) WXGUI not launching command windows in Fluxbox

Hello all,
I just encountered strange wxgui behaviour (Linux 64bit, GRASS 7.2.1svn
r70326 binary snapshot):
When I run it from MATE desktop environment, everything works normally.
When I run it from Fluxbox, wxgui starts, I can select location and
mapset, the main program starts normally. But then, selecting (almost)
any interactive command from menu, i.e. v.info or g.region, nothing
happens. Also, when I try to run the same command without parameters
from the console within the layer manager window, nothing happens,
nothing shows in the console log file if I activate it. When I try to
run the same command from the terminal emulator window running in the
GRASS session, it normally launches the v.info window. Very few actions
do open a window from menu, so far I discovered g.gui.gcp, "Add more
raster or vector maps (Ctrl-Shift-L)" and "Run script" in File menu and
panel icons working (translation of menu items from Czech).
Selecting a non-interactive menu item, or putting it in the console,
like g.region -p ( menu "Settings/Region/Show whole region (g.region
-p)" ), the command works and shows its output in the output pane of the
console tab.
Can anyone reproduce this? Is it normal, i.e. does the wxgui need some
service not running in a bare linux window manager, which is running in
a typical full desktop environment?
Regards,
Tomas Brunclik
