Just downloaded a3. one oddity, when I try to change theme, enable anti alias or enable image dithering from the menu, the change seems to take effect, but while fluxbox is restarting, I get booted out of x to a shell prompt. I can run startx, I return to the desktop, and then fluxbox will behave normally... curious.
---edit---
ok, it seems to happen only when i use the dma boot option.

Ok, i take that back, it will still restart with or without dma turned on, but if I restore my config files from a2, the problem goes away altogether.

using a3 with the norestore option, I can edit the fluxbox init file directly, save the changes, and restart fb through the menu. But when I try and make the changes directly from the setup>desktop>configuration or styles menu, x crashes and I'm back at a shell prompt... weird.
