Issue 200: xmonad spins in a tight loop changing focus back and forth http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=200 Comment #4 by k.kosciuszkiewicz: This bug isn't related to focusFollowsMouse configuration setting. I have tested that setting this option to False and changing focus with keyboard also triggers the bug. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Key repetitions (begginer)
by Mauricio 09 Sep '08

09 Sep '08

Hi, In Metacity, I used to have disabled the option to repeat a key after some time of pressing (i.e., you press 'e' for some time and get 'eeeeeeeeeeeee'). How can I do that when using xmonad? Should (can) I do that using X itself? Is there a "xmonad way" of doing that sort of things? Thanks, Maurício

Issue 208 in xmonad: Focus on mouse enter seems racy with Xinerama

Issue 208: Focus on mouse enter seems racy with Xinerama http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=208 Comment #1 by tommi.virtanen: I can reproduce the problem without Xinerama, with a grid layout. Something like this: 12 34 where I move the pointer quickly from 3->4->2, and the focus stays at 4. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Issue 214: mouse shift with java http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=214 Comment #2 by girodt: I found the culprit. It is not the Java app, it is Java itself, which does not play fair and square with the WM sometimes. There is a solution, however : you just have to use an alternative AWT toolkit : > export AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit in .bashrc does the trick. repeat after me : this is not a XMonad bug. XMonad is clean and pure. :) -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

XMonad.Prompt.Shell headache
by Jesús Guerrero 08 Sep '08

08 Sep '08

Hello, XMonad.Prompt.Shell is behaving erratically since a few weeks ago. I was lazy to report it here, and I have been just using a terminal as my launcher since then. I include it this way: import XMonad.Prompt.Shell ( shellPrompt ) And use it this other way: , ((modMask, xK_p), shellPrompt robSPConfig) , ((mod1Mask, xK_F2), shellPrompt robSPConfig) The problem: when I press modMask+p to launch it, it opens, then I start writting, but I can write only one character, after that, it displays the dropdown thinggie showing the possibilities, and I can't write anything else. I can't close the propmt, nor the dropdown list, the only way around it is to restart xmonad using modMask+q, which works. Any idea? Thanks for reading. -- Jesús Guerrero <i92guboj(a)terra.es>

Issue 216: XPrompt: History should include the current entry line http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=216 New issue report by nomeata: Hi, when using the up-arrow (after possibly having entered some text already) to go to the last entry in the history, it should be possible to use the down-arrow to go back to the empty line or the already entered text, as it is in the shell.

Issue 215: Bash-Like XPrompt settings http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=215 New issue report by nomeata: Hi, I’d like to see some bash-like bevaiour in XPrompt (of course configurable and as an alternative to the current config): * No completion is shown until I press Tab the first time. or, probably a bit harder: * No completion is shown. Pressing Tab once completes the entry as far as it matches all completions. A second Tab press will open the completion window.

Border colors dependent on layout algorithm
by Jacob King 07 Sep '08

07 Sep '08

In the spirit of making all state explicit, I want to hack up Xmonad to use different border colors depending on the mode. The particular situation of annoyance is when in full-screen mode, I forget that there are other hidden windows, and just assume that I'm in some other mode with only one window. There are a large number of configurations in which the current mode is not immediately discernable from the layout. Has anyone made such a modification? My first glance at the codebase suggests this is a nontrivial modification, and I didn't see anything related in the archives, so I figured it would be best to ask the mailing list before groking & hacking the project. Thanks, Jacob
