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

Update2: Everything works in Blackbox WM, so it is either issue of 
Fluxbox, or my configuration of it. Still, it would be interesting if 
some Fluxbox enthusiast would test it. Probably not worth to bother for 
others..

>> Hello all,

>> When I run it from MATE desktop environment, everything works normally.
>> When I run it from Fluxbox, wxgui starts, I can select location and

>> 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
