CycleRecentWS with nonempty workspaces only
by Ralph Hofmann 24 Jan '10

24 Jan '10

I would like to have cycleRecentWS of XMonad.Actions.CycleRecentWS to cycle the nonempty workspaces only. Can anybody point my the way to achieve this? (The conventional if-then stuff is a mystery in haskell;-)) Thanks in advance. Ralph

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 364 by czaber: ShellPrompt freezes on completion in home directory. http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=364 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. open ShellPrompt (Mod-P in my config) 2. try to complete path from home dir, eg. ls /home/czaber/ or ls ./ What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I've expected to see files/directories in my home dir. Instead, whole XMonad freezes and I can only restart it (Mod-Q). What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? xmonad 0.9.1 from package community/xmonad 0.9.1-2 plus community/xmonad-contrib 0.9.1-2 . I use Arch Linux, with kernel 2.6.32-ARCH on my EeePC 901. Are you using an xmonad.hs? Please attach it and the output of "xmonad --recompile". I've attached my xmonad.hs, "xmonad --recompile" produces no output. Please provide any additional information below. However when I write: ls projects(or any file or directory from home)/ then I can see files/dirs in this directory (projects/ is one of directories in my home dir).

Next minor release?
by Jan Vornberger 23 Jan '10

23 Jan '10

Hey! I'd like to bug again a little bit about releasing a Bluetile-compatible version of xmonad and xmonad-contrib. ;-P Is this still on the horizont? What things are planned to go into a potential next minor release and might need to be finished or polished for that? Do we want more testing of the extensible state feature before releasing a version of the core with it? Cheers! Jan

Restarting xmonad messes up Gnome
by Ones Self 19 Jan '10

19 Jan '10

Hi, I've recently upgraded from xmonad v0.8 to v0.9. In v0.8, I was able to restart xmonad within a running Gnome session. This is extremely useful when trying out different modifications of ones xmonad.hs file. However, when doing the same in v0.9 it completely messes up Gnome making the Gnome. Which means I need to log out/log in, and kind of defeats the purpose of restarting xmonad. I am using the following keybinding to restart xmonad: -- Restart xmonad , ((modMask .|. controlMask, xK_q ), broadcastMessage ReleaseResources >> restart "xmonad" True) Is this still the right command? Thanks,

First, you should take up this discussion on the xmonad(a)haskell.org list? (CC'd) Secondly, assuming you've installed xmonad from Fedora, it's not clear what is wrong with your set up.

xmonad on gnome: permanently busy cursor?
by Lara Michaels 18 Jan '10

18 Jan '10

Hi everyone, I have followed the wiki instructions to setup xmonad on Gnome (Ubuntu 9.10) http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Using_xmonad_in_Gnome and it worked beautifully. Just one thing is wrong: the cursor is permanently in "busy" state. I have noticed that this only happens when I enable (and add to the gnome panel) xmonad log applet. Oddly, if I do "sudo killall Xorg" and start my session over the problem is gone. I have seen others mention this problem http://art.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?s=60a2086ae873324dce1d75cbad6e5402… but couldn't find any solution to it. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? thanks! lara
