Thanks very much for the advice. I will followup with the results I get.
OK. I created the startfluxbox script, changing the path to fluxbox itself to fit where the Fedora RPM puts it, and also adding /usr/share/fluxbox/startup which wasn't there but which startfluxbox references. I put the "export LC_ALL=C" in /usr/share/fluxbox/startup.
That done, and with a .xsession of
startfluxboxI can run fluxbox fine by asking for a default session (it takes maybe five or six seconds to start up). Asking for a fluxbox session explicitly bypasses startfluxbox, I presume, and thus /usr/share/fluxbox/startup, and hence takes a long time (I have yet to wait long enough to say how long it is). I'll experiment with the fluxbox.desktop file, maybe making it
Exec=startfluxboxto see whether that works.

I suspect that it will. Although it seems like I tried putting "export LC_ALL=C" my startup file and it didn't work. I can't think of a reason why it wouldn't though so maybe I'm just not remembering it right :)
