Issue 578 in xmonad: Make Query an instance of Applicative?

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 578 by Javra...(a)gmail.com: Make Query an instance of Applicative? https://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=578 This is an enhancement request: Could you make XMonad.Core.Query an instance of Applicative? Since it's already an instance of Monad and DeriveApplicative is available. It will allow more concise queries and we can get rid of "Orphan instance" warnings when deriving Applicative manually. e.g.: ((&&) <$> fmap (== "FooClass") className <*> fmap (== "Bar title") title) Thanks. -- You received this message because this project is configured to send all issue notifications to this address.

> This sounds like an X configuration issue. No it isn't because MATE can use Xinerama.

No, I said that MATE was recognizing the screens and it does it also now. I never installed XMonad from the package manager or from my user "global" cabal because last time I did it I had a lot of problems. XMonad in a sandbox would be perfect... > This makes me wonder if the > tests are being done with a different xmonad library and/or the sandbox is > somehow not seeing a Xinerama-enabled X11 (this can happen if the original > was installed globally via OS package but the sandboxed build is using a > local X11 bindings package, and the Xinerama developer headers/libraries > weren't installed, for example). > > I don't think we have enough information to diagnose this. X11 bindings, XMonad and XMonad-contrib are all installed in the sandbox with Xinerama support. The Xinerama lib they used is the one installed by my package manager. Do you think I could give you some informations to understand what's going on?

Issue 577 in xmonad: Add new master pane client count control command

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 577 by m...(a)mired.org: Add new master pane client count control command https://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=577 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Follow my usage for a while. 2. Note that I often send "IncMasterN" instead of "DecMasterN" by accident. 3. Also note that I pretty much never have more than two clients in the master pane. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I expect to not reach unused configurations by accident. I expect the WM to allow a configuration that prevents that. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? 0.11 on FreeBSD 10. Are you using an xmonad.hs? Please attach it and the output of "xmonad --recompile". Not completely relevant. Please provide any additional information below. The attached patch file adds a new Message type to the Tall layout (I didn't see where it should be added to other layouts). The message is called "SplitMaster", and has no arguments. It fixes the first issue by setting the client count to the master pane to 1 if it's not currently 1, thus providing a quick way to get back to that setting. It solves the second issue by changing the client count for the master pane to 2 if it's currently 1, effectively making it a toggle between the two modes of a split master pane and an unsplit master pane.

Xmonad sanboxed and Xinerama
by Mario Pastorelli 03 Oct '14

Hi xmonaders, I have decided to move my XMonad install inside a sandbox to avoid problems when packages are updated. I'm able to run XMonad with cabal exec xmonad and I'm very happy with it. My only problem is that XMonad cannot use Xinerama for some reason: if I configure two displays then I get a single display which is the union of the first one with the second one. I cannot find any way to use displays as independent. What I'm doing wrong? MATE is able to use Xinerama without problems and X11, XMonad and XMonad-contrib are built with xinerama: > ldd ../../xmonad/.cabal-sandbox/bin/xmonad ... libXinerama.so.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXinerama.so.1 (0x00007f86f66e8000) libX11.so.6 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libX11.so.6 (0x00007f86f63b2000) libXrandr.so.2 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXrandr.so.2 (0x00007f86f61a8000) ... I have libxinerama: > ghc -e Graphics.X11.Xinerama.compiledWithXinerama True And Xorg starts with Xinerama: > grep -i xinerama /var/log/Xorg.0.log [ 13.627] Initializing built-in extension XINERAMA I don't know what's wrong...how can I understand what's going on? Thanks in advance, Mario
