Well I guess this is solved. removing Mint sources did the trick, now it reports:

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

@el_koraco: Didn't work, I tried your trick first, no good. Guess Mint is basterd.

Are Mint sources by default in listing? Because I did not add them manualy, or sould I say, I don't remember...

Anyways, hvala el_koraco, thank you beadmaze, and you too johnraff and thevdude.

Did you add any testing or Sid sources in order to get Openbox 3.5 installed. Please post your /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/preferences files. Apt puts a hold on stuff when there's a situation that would render your system unusable, as the Synaptic case shows.
The difference in conky vs htop - here

Nope, I did not add anything.
Besides Opera, Clementine, and Conky items (Forecast, Clementine, Gui, Misc), nothing outside original CB repositories is installed.

Here is sources.list (without comments)

deb http://packages.crunchbanglinux.org/statler statler main
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main
deb http://packages.linuxmint.com/ debian main import upstream

preferences:

Package: *
Pin: release n=statler
Pin-Priority: 1001

Package: *
Pin: release n=squeeze
Pin-Priority: 100

@thevdude: That could be a possibility. But honestly, this is not something important, I just thought to ask. smile

Good catch, johnraff, didin't even see the fontconfig package. nale, did you try to fix the fonts by adding ubuntu packages?

Pfffffttt... nope, only thing I recall is adding couple fonts to my .font folder for Conky, (Weather and a few more).

Also, I have tested couple WMs (installed and removed), docks&bars (Docky and similar), but that was after the troubles with OpenBox. Could this be the result of me installing above mentioned 3rd party software?

@johnraff: In Installed (upgradable), it says that fontconfig-config is v2.8.0-2.1. (installed version), same for libfontconfig1, but under latest version is that ubuntu3. I cannot remove it, when i mark it to remove (full or "normal"), it draws removing all program from a-z, and installing firefox. I honestly don't remember installing anything out the ordinary. hmm

Greetings...

I'm having troubles with the following packages:
fontconfig-config, libfontconfig1

I have tried apt-get update, upgrade, dist-upgrade, but after it's done this is shown:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
The following packages have been kept back:
  fontconfig-config, libfontconfig1

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded.

Also, when I go to Synaptic Package Manager, under Installed (upgradable) both are shown, when I mark " fontconfig-config" for upgrade, under "To be removed" are all my programs, from Abiword, over libraries to zenity. And under "To be installed" are "Firefox", "firefox-l10n-af" and "libgpod4-nogtk".

For "libfontconfig1" this is report:

  Depends: fontconfig-config (=2.8.0-2.1ubuntu3) but 2.8.0-2.1 is to be installed
 PreDepends: multiarch-support  but it is not installable

This problem emerged couple days after I have installed fresh copy of CB, and I noticed it upon upgrading the Openbox to 3.5. (Due to these errors I was not able to upgrade OB).

And a second thing what I'm wondering is: Why does xfce4-taskmanager show different overall value for memory usage than Conky and htop. E.g. right now Conky: 436MB/755MB, htop the same, but Taskmanager 741MB / 755MB. Sure don't feel like 741MB. I don't really use the program, but coming from Windows, it was a bit confusing to use htop at first.

Thank you.

@el_koraco: How many languages do you speak? I've counted three so far. smile

And good morning from currently warmish Srebrenik, Bosnia and Herzegovina. I think I'm 23 yr. old. Never got the hang of calculating it correctly.

You the type of guy that likes to break something apart to see how it works and doesn't really care if it'll run ever again, just as long as he's learned something new? smile ...

I was really going for playing with anything possible, changing, peeking etc, and then, just to have it squeaky clean, did a "routine" reinstallation. Now it's perfect. wink

And thanks for the welcome, I'll make sure I ask if anything goes wrong. smile

@xeNULL: Well enjoying it so far. Besides, I've learned with XP not to lose too much time fixing it, reinstall always does the trick. smile And thank you. wink

@el_koraco: Hehe, znači ima nas i Balkanjerosa, fino je znati. Pozdrav. smile

A quick hello from new user (kinda new to this whole Linux thing), but from what I have seen in these few weeks, it's probably going to last for a while, mainly due to speed.

Been having some difficulties with #! (I've reinstalled system just an hour ago (after 2-3 days of playing with it), because my wallpaper wouldn't stick, my tint2 configuration suffered from same symptoms, kmess being kinda dumb (losing my connection after 4-5 secs) and some other problems that have emerged. Hopefully this time's the charm.

Anyways, hello to all of you. smile
