Bug in X.A.Submap
by Khudyakov Alexey 05 Aug '09

Hello I've submitted a bug some time ago. I didn't get any response, so I'm reposing it to ML. http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=295 Submap actions don't work when in russian layout. In english layout it does work without problem. Standard xmonad key bindings work in both layouts. I'm using version from darcs. 0.8 is affected to AFAIR. Layout are set up with XCB. $ setxkbmap -model pc104 -layout us,ru -variant basic,winkeys $ setxkbmap -option -option \ "grp_led:scroll,grp:shifts_toggle,compose:menu,ctrl:nocaps" Below is snippet from X.A.Submap. Quick research shown that keymasks m and m' has bit (1<<13) set when russian layout chosen. I have no idea how to interpret it. All valid keymasks are <= (1<<12) as declared in X11 headers. > -- | Like 'submap', but executes a default action if the key did not match. > submapDefault :: X () -> M.Map (KeyMask, KeySym) (X ()) -> X () > submapDefault def keys = do > XConf { theRoot = root, display = d } <- ask > > io $ grabKeyboard d root False grabModeAsync grabModeAsync currentTime > > (m, s) <- io $ allocaXEvent $ \p -> fix $ \nextkey -> do > maskEvent d keyPressMask p > KeyEvent { ev_keycode = code, ev_state = m } <- getEvent p > keysym <- keycodeToKeysym d code 0 > if isModifierKey keysym > then nextkey > else return (m, keysym) > > m' <- cleanMask m > > maybe def id (M.lookup (m', s) keys) > > io $ ungrabKeyboard d currentTime -- Khudyakov Alexey

Issue 305 in xmonad: Copy and paste by middle click does not work

Comment #5 on issue 305 by florian.bw: Copy and paste by middle click does not work http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=305 Yep, I will try that. Once KDE 4.3 is out in the Arch repositories :). So in a day or two. I use X without xorg.conf, on a notebook touchpad with middle mouse button (Dell E6400). The confusing thing is that it sometimes work and sometimes not. I'll test 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.

Comment #4 on issue 305 by daniel.wagner: Copy and paste by middle click does not work http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=305 Can you verify that this is working as expected in another window manager (on the same machine, with the same xorg.conf, in the same terminal emulator, etc.)? -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Comment #3 on issue 305 by florian.bw: Copy and paste by middle click does not work http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=305 I still experience this issue, also, for example, from screen (copy mode) to the same terminal, after escaping the copy mode. Is there any other way to copy? Like control-C in text fields. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

What happened to

Hi list, when browsing xmonads website, accessing http://www.xmonad.org/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Doc-Extending.html#5 XMonad.Layout.ScratchWorkspace doesn't seem to be available anymore. At least the webserver returns a: "Not Found The requested URL /xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Layout-ScratchWorkspace.html was not found on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request." It seems to be missing from contrib alltogether, since trying to import it to xmonad.hs results in an error, too: xmonad.hs:23:7: Could not find module `XMonad.Layout.ScratchWorkspace': it is not a module in the current program, or in any known package. Shouldn'it it be removed from the website? And is there any other way to get something like a Scratchpad? Regards Christian Walther
