| Well, for starters the Fedora entry for installing XMonad is blank/empty: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Installing_xmonad#Fedora Some things I've done: I set up a .xmonad directory in my home directory with this xmonad.hs [michael@localhost ~]$ cat ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs -- -- An example, simple ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs file. -- It overrides a few basic settings, reusing all the other defaults. -- import XMonad main = xmonad $ defaultConfig { borderWidth = 2 , terminal = "urxvt" , normalBorderColor = "#cccccc" , focusedBorderColor = "#cd8b00" } [michael@localhost ~]$ I set up a .xsession directory in my home directory with this in it [michael@localhost ~]$ cat .xsession export WINDOW_MANAGER="/usr/bin/xmonad" exec gnome-session [michael@localhost ~]$ Because supposedly X doesn't even check .xsession file without having xorg-x11-xinit-session installed, I also downloaded that. I set up a XMonad.desktop file in /usr/share/applications directory [michael@localhost ~]$ cat /usr/share/applications/Xmonad.desktop [Desktop Entry] Type=Application Encoding=UTF-8 Name=Xmonad # change this path according to your xmonad binary Exec=/usr/bin/xmonad NoDisplay=true X-GNOME-WMName=Xmonad X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Bugzilla=XMonad X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Product=xmonad X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Component=general X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=WindowManager X-GNOME-Provides=windowmanager X-GNOME-Autostart-Notify=true [michael@localhost ~]$ I added /usr/bin/xmonad to startup applications. All these things were suggested. Michael --- On Mon, 1/18/10, Don Stewart <dons@galois.com> wrote:
