Updates: Status: Invalid Comment #29 on issue 97 by byorgey: xmonad stops responding to keyboard input after running xscreensaver http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=97 I'm closing this since 1) it hasn't happened to me in a very long time 2) no one seems to have reported a similar problem for a year 3) it was never even clear whether this really was an xmonad problem---I suspect it wasn't. Feel free to reopen if you are having a similar issue and none of the solutions proposed in the comments work for you. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 560 by j...(a)jupiter.dk: Popup (code completion) window disappears http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=560 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Start IntelliJ IDE (I tried phpstorm) 2. Do word completion ("IntelliSense") and find a long method signature/description in the popup 3. Completion popup window mostly disappears (see attached photo). What is the expected output? What do you see instead? That the window stays visible What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? $ xmonad --version xmonad 0.11 $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.

Issue 413 in xmonad: Windows don't disappear
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 06 Mar '14

06 Mar '14

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 413 by srburnet: Windows don't disappear http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=413 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Open a window (e.g., a terminal, although it happens to all types of windows) 2. Do a bunch of other work with other windows. (This doesn't happen if you open and close a window immediately). 3. Close the original window. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? The window should disappear and the wallpaper should be shown. Instead, an artifact image of the window remains, although the window itself has definitely closed. I can't interact with the window and if open a new window xmonad behaves as if there is no additional window (the screen isn't split between the two windows). I can even drag a small window around in tiling mode over the image of the window and "erase" the closed window (i.e., the wallpaper is redrawn in areas touched by the window). I've attached a screenshot that hopefully makes sense. Note that the problem is very rare. There doesn't seem to be a pattern for which windows have the problem. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? xmonad darcs, on Arch Linux. I am using the NVIDIA proprietary drivers with dual monitors (Twinview). I am not using compositing. The problem has occured with multiple versions of xmonad, the kernel versions, and the NVIDIA driver. Are you using an xmonad.hs? Please attach it and the output of "xmonad --recompile". xmonad --recompile yields no output. Attachments: xmonad.hs 5.2 KB bug.png 741 KB

Comment #11 on issue 200 by wapcaplet88: xmonad spins in a tight loop changing focus back and forth http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=200 Same issue here, on Gentoo with xmonad-0.9 and openoffice-bin-3.2.0. Adding 'export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen' to ~/.xsession worked a treat!

Getting xmonad working with GNOME 3.8?
by William Ting 23 Feb '14

23 Feb '14

Hi, I've been using xmonad in GNOME 3.2 / 3.4 / 3.6 in fallback mode just fine, but the latest upgrade to GNOME 3.8 on Arch has rendered xmonad unusable. Does anybody know how to get xmonad working on GNOME again? Thanks, William

2013-02-09 change to XMonad.Prompt.Shell breaks shell completion
by md143rbh7f 04 Feb '14

04 Feb '14

The following change from 2013-02-09 breaks shell completion for me: hunk ./XMonad/Prompt/Shell.hs 65 + commandToComplete _ c = c It seems to be passing the entire string into compgen in order to get the file completions, but it should only pass the last word. I propose reverting this change. Comments are appreciated. (CCing c.lopez(a)kmels.net, who originally wrote the patch.)

Hello, I am attaching a patch changing read to Safe.readNote to provide a better error message in XMonad-Layout-IndependentScreens. It requires adding the Safe dependency to xmonad-contrib. Thanks Joe
