xmonad and dzen crashing
by Nathan Huesken 04 Oct '09

04 Oct '09

Hi, This is probably not directly xmonad related, sorry for that. Hi use xmonad dzen logger and start xmonad like this: xmonad | dzen2 -y -1 -ta l -bg "black" -expand right -e '' Sometimes my dzen statusbar disappears and I suspect, that it crashes. Can I somehow: 1. find out why it crashes? 2. restart it while xmonad is still running? Regards, Nathan

Hi, Can I somehow configure xmonad, so that only floating windows have window decoaration? By this I mean a titlebar, which can be used to drag them around ... Thanks! Nathan

Issue 177 in xmonad: xmonad does not follow ICCCM and ignores WM_TAKE_FOCUS protocol

Comment #16 on issue 177 by f.luithle: xmonad does not follow ICCCM and ignores WM_TAKE_FOCUS protocol http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=177 I can confirm Simon's observation. The regression observed with xev is ugly -- still I prefer a working Netbeans and jEdit over a working xev at this moment... Maybe somebody with a working knowledge of the X protocol (not me) could have a closer look. I have a hunch we're not far away from a clean patch. In any case, Xmonad not cooperating with Java Swing applications should be a no-no. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Comment #15 on issue 177 by simon.siegler: xmonad does not follow ICCCM and ignores WM_TAKE_FOCUS protocol http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=177 I've just tried gereedy's patch against latest darcs. This works fine for java (1.6.0_16) but breaks xev: All keyboard events to the focused xev window go to the previously focused window instead. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

xmonad and cssh
by Nathan Findley 02 Oct '09

02 Oct '09

I just started using xmonad today and love it! Now I use cssh quite a lot. It seems that as I am moving around the different workspaces xmonad sometimes has issues with displaying cssh and its associated ssh terminals. For instance while viewing workspace A with its own instance of cssh I might (mod-2) switch to workspace B expecting to see another cssh group of windows. Unfortunately after much flickering I end up with a blank workspace. The cssh process that I would expect to see in workspace B is still running. I end up killing it at the command line and restarting cssh. Does anyone else have issues with windows disappearing? Any ideas what I can do aside from kill/restart cssh ad nauseum? I'm running this on top of Ubuntu Jaunty by the way. _________________________________________________________________ Bing™ brings you maps, menus, and reviews organized in one place.
