Issue 251 in xmonad: mono applications not working under xmonad
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 04 Jan '09

04 Jan '09

Comment #6 on issue 251 by ttencate: mono applications not working under xmonad http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=251 Confirmed with XMonad 0.8 on Ubuntu Hardy with this config: http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Config_archive/Thomas_ten_Cate's_monad.hs And this application: http://nanowritool.sourceforge.net/ http://downloads.sourceforge.net/nanowritool/NaNoWriTool.exe Works fine on all desktops except the first. Looks like the calls to XGetWindowProperty in mcs/class/Managed.Windows.Forms/System.Windows.Forms/XplatUIX11.cs, in particular the WorkingArea getter, need some extra return value checking. What funkiness in XMonad causes this behaviour, I don't know. Something to do with the root window, I guess. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

darcs patch: XMonad.Actions.WindowGo: fix a floating-related focus bug
by gwern0＠gmail.com 02 Jan '09

02 Jan '09

Fri Dec 5 10:07:55 EST 2008 gwern0(a)gmail.com * XMonad.Actions.WindowGo: fix a floating-related focus bug If a floating window was focused, a cross-workspace 'raise' would cause a loop of shifting windows. Apparently the problem was 'focus' and its mouse-handling. Spencer suggested that the calls to focus be replaced with 'focusWindow', which resolved it.

Issue 257 in xmonad: OpenOffice Impress - Presentation-Mode damaged whole windowmanager
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 02 Jan '09

Comment #2 on issue 257 by ivan.miljenovic: OpenOffice Impress - Presentation-Mode damaged whole windowmanager http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=257 I tried duplicating this, but can't even get the slide show mode to start :s However, this occurs to me with xscreensaver (not the cursor, but hot keys not working, etc.).... I find the only way to get xmonad working again is to use the cursor to switch to a different physical screen (thus, this only works if using xinerama) and then back again. Not sure if this is an xscreensaver or an xmonad issue though... but maybe you should try this "fix" with impress? -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

darcs patch: Grab all keycodes linked to each keysym, not just one
by svein.ove＠aas.no 02 Jan '09

02 Jan '09

Sat Dec 13 22:06:02 CET 2008 svein.ove(a)aas.no * Grab all keycodes linked to each keysym, not just one XKeysymToKeycode only gives the first code bound to a given symbol. To handle the case where multiple keys are bound to the same symbol, XKeycodeToKeysym is used instead, searching through all possible (247) keycodes for each sym.

New Layout: ThreeColumnsMiddle
by Carsten Otto 02 Jan '09

02 Jan '09

Hi, I modified the layout "ThreeColumns" such that the master window is centered. In my opinion this layout is especially useful when using a huge screen (30" with 2560x1600 in my case). Like in the original layout, there can be more than one master window. Furthermore, the size of the middle section can be changed. Code and screenshot: http://server.c-otto.de/xmonad/ Sorry for not providing a patch, but I have no experience with darcs. Bye, -- Carsten Otto carsten(a)c-otto.de www.c-otto.de

Bugtracker: Cleanup
by Dominik Bruhn 02 Jan '09

02 Jan '09

Hy, just to start a discussion about it: I think we should clean up the bug-tracker. There are many bugs which are fixed or cant be tracked down. We should check for each bug whether it has been fixed over the time or if its a "wontfix" or something else. After this we would have a list of things to do and open bugs. Currently the bugtracker is a weird list of things from "not important at all" to "very important" issues. I would have started cleaning up but as I dont have the permissions in the issues-tracker I could only have posted some notes as comments and this would help. Greetings -- Dominik Bruhn mailto: dominik(a)dbruhn.de
