What keybindings does xmonad not support? It doesn't support "extra" keys such as XF86Back XF86Forward etc; these keys are recognised by recent versions of X11, and are recognised by other window managers such as Fvwm, but when I tried making keybindings for them in xmonad, it didn't work, and the documentation didn't include them in the list of supported keys. But as I said, there's a workaround, and I rather like the workaround, because I hadn't known about the existence of xbindkeys before.

Comment #4 on issue 261 by dons00: Fullscreen flash movie fails http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=261 All fullscreen-ish things are tiled by default now. This is probably the expected behaviour of a tiling wm. *However* we really need a rule to float things that ask to be fullscreen -- no one expects flash stuff at fullscreen to be tiled. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
