Might be useful to some xmonaders. ----- Forwarded message from Christian Dietrich <stettberger(a)dokucode.de> ----- Date: Thu, 6 Dec 2007 21:31:01 +0100 From: Christian Dietrich <stettberger(a)dokucode.de> To: dynamic window manager <dwm(a)suckless.org> Subject: [dwm] dinput 0.2 Hi, I released a new version of dinput[1] today. dinput is a derivative of dmenu, but with a history and line editing. In this version i added support for binding actions to keystrokes. For example will -e '^a=popen(xclip -o)' define a keybinding for ctrl+a, which inserts the output of `xclip -o` command to the actual cursor position. Feel free to comment. cheers, didi [1] http://dokucode.de/cgi-bin/show.sh?path=/Projects/dinput -- No documentation is better than bad documentation ----- End forwarded message -----

Hi guys, It seems that my ghc configuration is broken ( /usr/lib/ghc-6.8.1/package.conf ) . Is there a way to re-install properly cabal / ghc ? (or at least find a way to fix my conf) I would like to make a clean install of xmonad. thanks in advance, Lobzang.

xmonad 0.5 release candidates
by Don Stewart 06 Dec '07

06 Dec '07

Release candidates for the upcoming 0.5 xmonad are available, for the beta testers: http://xmonad.org/xmonad-0.4.20071204.tar.gz http://xmonad.org/xmonad-contrib-0.4.20071204.tar.gz You'll need X11 1.4 from hackage.haskell.org. These should work fine with ghc 6.6 or ghc 6.8, and use the new ~/.xmonad/ configuration system. Documentation isn't up yet, so drop by the IRC channel if you get stuck, or anything goes wrong. The more testing, the better the release! -- Don

Issue 97 in xmonad: xmonad stops responding to keyboard input after running xscreensaver

Issue 97: xmonad stops responding to keyboard input after running xscreensaver http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=97 New issue report by byorgey: What steps will reproduce the problem? I am not entirely sure how to reproduce it reliably -- it only seems to happen if the screensaver is running for a while. 1. lock the screen with xscreensaver/let computer sit idle for a while/close laptop lid. (?) 2. unlock screen. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? xmonad no longer responds to keyboard input. I can still switch to a virtual terminal with Ctrl-Alt-F1, though. xmonad is definitely still running, and the mouse still works. Focus still follows the mouse and applications seem to respond to keyboard input. It seems that opening a new window causes xmonad to start responding to keyboard input again. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? latest darcs, on Ubuntu gutsy.

Problem in Installing xmonad
by Nikitin Lev 05 Dec '07

05 Dec '07

Hello. I'm trying install xmonad (0.4.1). I use debian linux 4.0 r1 I've installed new version of ghc: 6.8.1, version of X11 is 1.3.0. When I configure xmonad (runhaskell Setup.lhs configure) I get error: ------------------- XMonad.hs:42:17: Could not find module `Data.Set': it is a member of package containers-0.1.0.0, which is hidden ------------------- Can anybody help me? P.S. With older version of ghc (from debian distr, I had problem to install old-time and old-locale packages...). P.S.S. I'm novice in haskell. Is there any tutorial how to install (update) new haskell packages (for ghc)?

Prompt: Keys not working
by Dominik Bruhn 02 Dec '07

02 Dec '07

Hy, as mentioned before I use xmonad and xmonad-contrib from darcs. The Prompt-Plugin (the problem occurs both in ssh-prompt and append to file) got a bug imho: By looking into the code I found out that you can exit the prompt with a CTRL+c and move in the prompt like on Bash using CTRL+a and CTRL+e. All these command dont work at all, alle command which use a CTRL Modifier generate strange characters in the Commandprompt but dont do anything. For example the CTRL+c generates a strange chineese looking charakter, the CTRL+a produces a black dot. Perhaps its a problem with my setup: The whole system is UTF-8, but in all other applications (bash, urxvt for example) these shortcuts work so I think its a problem with xmonad. Can anybody help me with this? -- Dominik Bruhn mailto: dominik(a)dbruhn.de
