Issue 200 in xmonad: xmonad spins in a tight loop changing focus back and forth

Comment #6 on issue 200 by lucia.culakova: xmonad spins in a tight loop changing focus back and forth http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=200 I have observed a very similar effect, and the cause was use of XMonad.Actions.Warp with recent xmonad (0.8 for sure, maybe even 0.7?). Changing to use XMonad.Action.UpdateMouse fixed the problem for me, or so it seems. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Issue 241 in xmonad: 0.8: moving floated window changes the current tiled master

Comment #3 on issue 241 by lucia.culakova: 0.8: moving floated window changes the current tiled master http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=241 Ah, indeed, it is fixed now. "Just after" might be an overstatement, since I have encountered this bug a while ago and tried to update do darcs without any improvement. However, there is now a different bug, after pulling the 2 patches I have excluded: Wed May 21 23:50:57 CEST 2008 Trevor Elliott <trevor(a)galois.com> * Raise windows in the floating layer when moving or resizing Thu Sep 11 07:39:09 CEST 2008 Devin Mullins <me(a)twifkak.com> * add W.shiftMaster, fix float/tile-reordering bug When I drag a tiled window that is not master, it *first* jumps to master position and size and then moves, which is... counterintuitive, at best. Might be worth filing a new report, then? -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Comment #2 on issue 241 by jus...(a)justinbogner.com: 0.8: moving floated window changes the current tiled master http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=241 This was fixed in darcs right after the 0.8 release. As a workaround, you could rebind your mouse buttons to not use windows W.swapMaster. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 241 by lucia.culakova: 0.8: moving floated window changes the current tiled master http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=241 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Create a workspace with 3 tiled and a single float window. 2. Change one of the non-master tiled windows to master. 3. Move the float window around with a mouse. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Nothing happens to the tiled layout, the float window moves. Instead, while the float window moves, the previous master is swapped back into master position in the tiled layout. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? This happens in 0.8 from cabal, ghc 6.8.2 on Debian. Downgrading xmonad and xmonad-contrib to 0.7 fixes the problem. Please provide any additional information below.

I recall trying to solve this in #xmonad, but noone has been able to reproduce, so I am at a loss what's wrong here. But, recompiling xmonad-0.7 against exactly the same system fixes the problem, so I believe this *is* a xmonad bug... -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Issue 240 in xmonad: recompilation fails silently
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 25 Nov '08

25 Nov '08

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 240 by graphov: recompilation fails silently http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=240 This is not actually a defect but take some time to fix. Tomorrow I got template xmonad.hs config from the wiki (now it is changed and is correct). That file contained a module declaration with name different from "Main". That caused ghc just to compile (xmonad.o produced) it but don't link (as no Main presents). As there were no compilation errors xmonad started normally but actually config wasn't applied. I was fighting with xmonad for an hour trying to force it to use rxvt-unicode instead of xterm before noticed that my config simply doesn't compile. Maybe it's better to check if the executable actually presents in xmonad directory?

Issue 239 in xmonad: W.shiftMaster not in scope

Updates: Status: Fixed Comment #2 on issue 239 by byorgey: W.shiftMaster not in scope http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=239 No, the problem is that the template xmonad.hs for 0.8 on the wiki was actually the darcs version; shiftMaster was added after the 0.8 release. I've fixed the template xmonad.hs to actually work with the released 0.8 version of xmonad, and added a link to a darcs template xmonad.hs as well. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Comment #6 on issue 177 by astsmtl: xmonad does not follow ICCCM and ignores WM_TAKE_FOCUS protocol http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=177 I can confirm that it fixes my problems with focus in some Java apps. I didn't try this patch before, because author said it doesn't work and already installed fluxbox to work with those apps. :) -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
