darcs patch: New layout combinator: LayoutBuilderP, and one more.
by Ilya Portnov 11 May '11

11 May '11

Hello xmonad world. X.L.LayoutBuilderP is a layout combinator similar to X.L.LayoutBuilder (and is based on it). But LayoutBuilder places fixed number of windows into each rectangle. LayoutBuilderP places windows matching given Property (or any other predicate) into one rectangle. darcs could not record my patch because of warnings in X.A.DynamicWorkspaces: XMonad/Actions/DynamicWorkspaces.hs:40:0: Warning: The import of `XMonad.Actions.CopyWindow' is redundant except perhaps to import instances from `XMonad.Actions.CopyWindow' To import instances alone, use: import XMonad.Actions.CopyWindow() XMonad/Actions/DynamicWorkspaces.hs:41:0: Warning: The import of `XMonad.Prompt' is redundant except perhaps to import instances from `XMonad.Prompt' To import instances alone, use: import XMonad.Prompt() <no location info>: Failing due to -Werror. Test failed! So, I removed redudant imports from that module (see the second patch). WBR, Ilya Portnov.

darcs patch: Compile with ghc7
by Mats Rauhala 11 May '11

11 May '11

1 patch for repository http://code.haskell.org/XMonadContrib: Wed May 4 22:24:55 EEST 2011 Mats Rauhala <mats.rauhala(a)gmail.com> * Compile with ghc7 I'm not sure if someone was already working on getting xmonad-contrib to work with ghc7 and I hope I'm not stepping on anyones toes. Until now (at least I) it wasn't possible to record changes with ghc7, because of warnings emitted by the change to ghc7. There were a couple of warnings about -fglasgow-exts, a couple of orphan instances, and a couple of warnings about useless imports (which were there for haddock!). I doubt that this is a perfect solution, and should be checked with a magnifying glass. There were pretty big changes to FlexibleManipulate.hs because the `type Pnt = (Double, Double)` caused orphan instances warning to be emitted. I hope someone would take their time to check the changes with ghc6 so that I didn't break anything with it. Gwen gave me a couple of tips, but there might be something else also.

Keybinding to disable keybindings
by Jan-David Quesel 11 May '11

11 May '11

Hi, is there a way to have a keybinding to disable all keybindings but one, i.e. the one to reenable the others? This would come handy to me for example when using VNC and I want to passthrough some keybindings to the client...

can't load from xsession

my xsession loads gnome stuff -- but doesn't load xmonad. I'm a non-programer type so maybe I'm missing something simple. Here is my .xsession: ------------------------------------- #!/bin/bash # Load resources xrdb -merge .Xresources xloadimage -onroot -full-screen ~/pics/nyc1.jpg & # Set up an icon tray trayer --edge top --align right --transparent true --tint 000000 --SetDockType true --SetPartialStrut true --expand true --width 10 --height 12 & #trayer --edge top --align right --SetDockType true --SetPartialStrut true --expand true --width 10 --transparent true --tint 0x191970 --height 12 & # Set the background color xsetroot -solid black -cursor_name top_left_arrow # Fire up apps xscreensaver -no-splash & if [ -x /usr/bin/nm-applet ] ; then nm-applet --sm-disable & fi if [ -x /usr/bin/gnome-power-manager ] ; then sleep 3 gnome-power-manager fi exec xmonad -- Daniel Goldin 626.817.2462

How to get decorations to update as window title changes?
by Joseph Garvin 10 May '11

10 May '11

I've setup simple decorations in my xmonad.hs and I can toggle them, which is pretty nice, but I've noticed that I have to toggle the decorations on and off in order to get window titles to update. Firefox for example constantly changes the title of the window to match the website you're currently visiting, and I've setup my terminal to change the window title whenever I switch directories, but xmonad doesn't pick up either of these until I toggle the decorations on and off. Is there a way to have them update as they change? -Joe G.

Issue 451 in xmonad: Problem with popping up gnome menu with a hotkey
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 08 May '11

08 May '11

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 451 by victor.g...(a)gmail.com: Problem with popping up gnome menu with a hotkey http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=451 gnomeRun() from XMonad.Config.Gnome works, but after replacing _GNOME_PANEL_ACTION_RUN_DIALOG to _GNOME_PANEL_ACTION_MAIN_MENU (I want to popu up menu) there is no menu. I'm attaching a trivial program (in C) that pop-ups menu if compiled with -DMAIN_MENU and run-dialog otherwise. I'm spawning that program from xmonad: ("M-<F1>", spawn "/path/to/gnome-popup"). Results: MAIN_MENU version works only if there is a delay before sending X message. Without delay there is no menu. I'm not sure, but maybe it is some bug in xmonad, because I don't understand, why we need this delay, so I'm reporting it here. Attachments: gnome-popup.c 777 bytes

Issue 449 in xmonad: Off-by-2*wa_border_width error in XMonad.Actions.UpdatePointer
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 07 May '11

07 May '11

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 449 by beneficial.terminator: Off-by-2*wa_border_width error in XMonad.Actions.UpdatePointer http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=449 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Enable XMonad.Actions.UpdatePointer 2. Set borderWidth to 100 (or some other large number) in xmonad config 3. Move the mouse pointer to the right of or below a window, then switch focus to that window What is the expected output? What do you see instead? The pointer should move to the edge or center of the newly focused window. Instead it moves as if the focused window is 200 pixels narrower on the right and 200 pixels shorter at the bottom. In XMonad.Actions.UpdatePointer.windowAttributesToRectangle, because of the way WindowAttributes is calculated, the dimension wa_width wa should be 2 * wa_border_width wa + wa_width wa and analogously the dimension wa_height wa should be 2 * wa_border_width wa + wa_height wa . Please use labels and text to provide additional information. If this error is due to a module from XMonadContrib, please tag this issue with 'Component-Contrib' below.
