Virtual desktops gnome style?
by Joseph Garvin 03 Jun '09

03 Jun '09

In gnome, each virtual desktop in the pager is really a pair of virtual desktops if you have two monitors. So if you start a new session, then load up some stuff on both monitors, then switch to desktop 2, now nothing is visible -- both monitors are on a fresh slate, and so on for however many virtual desktops you have. I'd really prefer if xmonad followed the same behavior. Is there an easy way to code this? My haskell-fu is weak. Or maybe there's a contrib module that does what I want already?

XMonad + Xinerama + Gnome + Ubuntu = No Love
by fREW Schmidt 03 Jun '09

Hey guys, I am using xmonad with gnome on my dual screen desktop and I am getting some really weird results. Windows will show up correctly on both monitors, but switching desktops (with Meta 1, 2, 3) doesn't switch both of the monitors, only the active one. It's like the non active screen follows me and sometimes switches sides... Very strange. Any ideas what could be wrong? -- fREW Schmidt http://blog.afoolishmanifesto.com

how to run xmonad under gnome?

I try to run xmonad under my gnome. I put the code below in my xmonad.hs import XMonad import XMonad.Config.Gnome main = xmonad gnomeConfig not found errors or changes to xmonad.hs won't take effect . I used "ghc-pkg list" and "ghc-pkg check", and I got the things below. How can I fix these things and make the xmonad run under gnome? Thank you in advance! /usr/lib/ghc-6.10.3/./package.conf: Cabal-1.6.0.3, HUnit-1.2.0.3, QuickCheck-1.2.0.0, X11-1.4.5, X11-xft-0.3, array-0.2.0.0, base-3.0.3.1, base-4.1.0.0, bytestring-0.9.1.4, containers-0.2.0.1, directory-1.0.0.3, (dph-base-0.3), (dph-par-0.3), (dph-prim-interface-0.3), (dph-prim-par-0.3), (dph-prim-seq-0.3), (dph-seq-0.3), extensible-exceptions-0.1.1.0, filepath-1.1.0.2, (ghc-6.10.3), ghc-prim-0.1.0.0, haddock-2.4.2, haskell-src-1.0.1.3, haskell98-1.0.1.0, hinotify-0.2, hpc-0.5.0.3, html-1.0.1.2, integer-0.1.0.1, mtl-1.1.0.2, network-2.2.1, old-locale-1.0.0.1, old-time-1.0.0.2, packedstring-0.1.0.1, parallel-1.1.0.1, parsec-2.1.0.1, pretty-1.0.1.0, process-1.0.1.1, random-1.0.0.1, regex-base-0.72.0.2, regex-compat-0.71.0.1, regex-posix-0.72.0.3, rts-1.0, stm-2.1.1.2, syb-0.1.0.1, template-haskell-2.3.0.1, time-1.1.3, unix-2.3.2.0, utf8-string-0.3.4, xhtml-3000.2.0.1 There are problems in package rts-1.0: include-dirs: PAPI_INCLUDE_DIR doesn't exist or isn't a directory The following packages are broken, either because they have a problem listed above, or because they depend on a broken package. rts-1.0 haddock-2.4.2 ghc-6.10.3 ghc-prim-0.1.0.0 integer-0.1.0.1 base-4.1.0.0 syb-0.1.0.1 base-3.0.3.1 array-0.2.0.0 packedstring-0.1.0.1 containers-0.2.0.1 bytestring-0.9.1.4 old-locale-1.0.0.1 old-time-1.0.0.2 filepath-1.1.0.2 unix-2.3.2.0 directory-1.0.0.3 process-1.0.1.1 pretty-1.0.1.0 hpc-0.5.0.3 template-haskell-2.3.0.1 Cabal-1.6.0.3 random-1.0.0.1 haskell98-1.0.1.0 extensible-exceptions-0.1.1.0 regex-base-0.72.0.2 regex-posix-0.72.0.3 regex-compat-0.71.0.1 parsec-2.1.0.1 haskell-src-1.0.1.3 html-1.0.1.2 network-2.2.1 QuickCheck-1.2.0.0 HUnit-1.2.0.3 mtl-1.1.0.2 time-1.1.3 stm-2.1.1.2 xhtml-3000.2.0.1 parallel-1.1.0.1 dph-base-0.3 dph-prim-interface-0.3 dph-prim-seq-0.3 dph-prim-par-0.3 dph-seq-0.3 dph-par-0.3 utf8-string-0.3.4 hinotify-0.2 X11-xft-0.3 X11-1.4.5 _________________________________________________________________ 打工，挣钱，买房子，快来MClub一起”金屋藏娇”！ http://club.msn.cn/?from=10

darcs patch: AutoMaster layout modifier
by portnov 02 Jun '09

02 Jun '09

Hello xmonad world. * AutoMaster.dpatch Provides layout modifier AutoMaster. It separates screen in two parts - master and slave. Size of slave area automatically changes depending on number of slave windows. Master windows are placed in master area in one row. Slave windows are placed in slave area, controlled by underying layout. For example, with "autoMaster Grid" one will get something like this: http://iportnov.ru/files/automaster.gif WBR, Portnov.

xmonad error on Ubuntu 9.04
by Praki Prakash 01 Jun '09

Hi All, I just installed xmonad on a new Ubuntu 9.04 system and was hoping it would be quick to setup. I killed metacity and tried to run xmonad from the command line. I get the following error and not sure what it could be due to. I am using ghc 6.10.3 and seem to have all the necessary packages. Would be great if I can get a hint of what is going on. $ xmonad/home/pprakash/.xmonad/xmonad-i386-linux: executeFile: does not exist (No such file or directory) Xlib: extension "XINERAMA" missing on display ":1004.0". xmonad: XMonad/Main.hsc:(69,14)-(71,41): Irrefutable pattern failed for pattern (Data.Maybe.Just nbc_) $ uname -a Linux pprakash-desktop 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:57:59 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux $ ghc -v Glasgow Haskell Compiler, Version 6.10.3, for Haskell 98, stage 2 booted by GHC version 6.10.1 $ ghc-pkg list /usr/local/lib/ghc-6.10.3/./package.conf: Cabal-1.6.0.3, HUnit-1.2.0.3, QuickCheck-1.2.0.0, X11-1.4.5, array-0.2.0.0, base-3.0.3.1, base-4.1.0.0, bytestring-0.9.1.4, containers-0.2.0.1, directory-1.0.0.3, (dph-base-0.3), (dph-par-0.3), (dph-prim-interface-0.3), (dph-prim-par-0.3), (dph-prim-seq-0.3), (dph-seq-0.3), extensible-exceptions-0.1.1.0, filepath-1.1.0.2, (ghc-6.10.3), ghc-prim-0.1.0.0, haddock-2.4.2, haskell-src-1.0.1.3, haskell98-1.0.1.0, hpc-0.5.0.3, html-1.0.1.2, integer-0.1.0.1, mtl-1.1.0.2, network-2.2.1, old-locale-1.0.0.1, old-time-1.0.0.2, packedstring-0.1.0.1, parallel-1.1.0.1, parsec-2.1.0.1, pretty-1.0.1.0, process-1.0.1.1, random-1.0.0.1, regex-base-0.72.0.2, regex-compat-0.71.0.1, regex-posix-0.72.0.3, rts-1.0, stm-2.1.1.2, syb-0.1.0.1, template-haskell-2.3.0.1, time-1.1.3, unix-2.3.2.0, xhtml-3000.2.0.1 Thanks.
