Issue 484 in xmonad: Use XDG Base Directory Specification

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 484 by cristikl...(a)gmail.com: Use XDG Base Directory Specification http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=484 Hello, Would it be possible to make xmonad respect the XDG Base Directory [1] specification? This would allow the user's home directory to be more organized and clearly separate configuration files, cache files and user data. For xmonad the following changes would be necessary: - move ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/xmonad/xmonad.hs - move other generated files (like xmonad.hi) to $XDG_CACHE_HOME/xmonad/ Thanks in advance, Cristian KLEIN.

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 579 by hobc...(a)gmail.com: xmonad hangs when watching a video after suspend https://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=579 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Suspend the machine 2. Recover from suspend 3. Open a video with vlc What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Instead of watching the video, I get no image, only sound, and xmonad becomes unresponsive, i.e. no key is working. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? version: 0.11, OS: Ubuntu Trusty Are you using an xmonad.hs? Please attach it and the output of "xmonad --recompile". Please provide any additional information below. The problem occurs with any other video player. When I restart the machine and then try to watch a video, everything is fine. The problem appears after a suspend. -- You received this message because this project is configured to send all issue notifications to this address.

Comment #4 on issue 578 by lambda.f...(a)gmail.com: Make Query an instance of Applicative? https://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=578 It looks like Query implements Applicative now [1].

I just posted my documentation on extending Layout's: http://buff.ly/1CsrZsz Again, if someone who can edit the wiki wants to add this, they should feel free to do so. Or if they'd rather I do, let me know where to get an account and I'll do it when I find the time.

Fwd: Integration with Gnome 3
by Alexandre Medeiros 18 Oct '14

18 Oct '14

Hello guys, Firstly, I know my problem is mostly related with Gnome, but I know it is more likely that one of you can help me. I'm trying to run Xmonad with Gnome 3.14 on my Arch system. I tried following both the ArchWiki[1] and the XmonadWiki[2] with no success. What I get is when I launch the session, the gnome-session breaks and I get a message "Somethings has gone really wrong" and my only option is to logout. If anyone has a solution for this or can point me in the right direction, I would be really grateful. Cheers, [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xmonad#GNOME_3_and_xmonad [2] http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Using_xmonad_in_Gnome#Gnome3 -- Alexandre Medeiros Institute of Computing - University of Campinas BSc Computer Science Student GNU/Linux user #562691 http://alemedeiros.sdf.org/

Patch to add configurable working directory
by Oliver Dunkl 16 Oct '14

16 Oct '14

For using xmonad for developing I have add some improvements to the function `getXMonadDir'. With that patch you can select the working-directory from where xmonad reads its configuration file (xmonad.hs). It reads the environment variable XMONAD_WORKING_DIR_NAME and if it is set the working-directory ist set to this directory name. If it is not set it works as before that means the working directory is $HOME/.xmonad. An example of using the environment variable: $ export XMONAD_WORKING_DIR_NAME=xmonad-test && xmonad means that xmonad try to start xmonad with the configuration file in the directory $HOME/.xmonad-test -> $HOME/.xmonad-test/xmonad.hs is the configuration file. In my case I start Xephyr with $ Xephyr :1 and after that I start xmonad with a different working directory $ DISPLAY=:1 && export XMONAD_WORKING_DIR_NAME=xmonad-test && xmonad br \= odi -- Oliver Dunkl WEB: http://github.com/odi IM: odi(a)jabber.ccc.de IRC: odi(irc.freenode.net)

task bar
by Alain Bertrand 12 Oct '14

12 Oct '14

Hello all, I am new to xmonad, coming from many years of openbox. I want a taskbar to display the time, ibus/mozC status and a logout button with hibernate choice. This taskbar should be - either horizontal, in that case it shouldn't take all the screen width (I use XMonad.Layout.NoFrillsDecoration for the window title bar, so there is ample room left for what I display in the bar, - or vertical (to minimize use of screen realestate). What taskbar would do satisfy these criteria ? Thanks in advance. Alain

The problem for me is that I actually use multiple Layouts, and switching between them is a conceptually different thing from switching between one and two clients in the master pane. So using an extra layout for this would create extra steps when I wanted to change the number of clients in the master pane AND when I wanted to change layouts. I think I'd rather have the current behavior. If someone wants o Is there some way to have a configuration with two sets of layouts to toggle between? that would certainly do the trick. While I can see how to do that, I'm not sure it's in general a good idea and so suspect it's not there.

Ultra Wide Monitors and Xmonad
by Eyal Erez 08 Oct '14

08 Oct '14

Hi, I'm thinking of buying one of these new ultra wide monitors <http://www.lg.com/us/ultrawide-monitors> that are 21:9. At this width, it doesn't really make sense for a single workspace to occupy the entire screen. I was wondering if there was a way to assign more than one workspace to a single monitor? Extra points for being able to add or remove workspaces at will. The goal is to have 2-3 workspaces on a single monitor side by side. Thank you, -- *Eyal Erez <**oneself(a)gmail.com* <oneself(a)gmail.com>*>* There are 10 types of people, those who know binary and those who don't.

Issue 578 in xmonad: Make Query an instance of Applicative?
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 07 Oct '14

07 Oct '14

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.
