Patch proposal: Save arbitary data per-window
by Dmitry Bogatov 16 Mar '14

16 Mar '14

Hello! Thanks for beautiful piece of free software. I want to propose module, allowing saving data in per-window way. I wrote it because I wanted have per-window keyboard layout state, but module is very generic. I did not introduced any new dependencies, but what is policy about dependencies? PS. Please, respond in any way, since I have doubts that this email will arive. -- Best regards, Dmitry Bogatov <KAction(a)gnu.org>, Free Software supporter, esperantisto and netiquette guardian. git://kaction.name/rc-files.git GPG: 54B7F00D

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 564 by christer...(a)gmail.com: Some HW rendered windows will have residues when switching workspace http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=564 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Run urxvt on workspace 1 2. Run minecraft on workspace 2 3. Switch back to workspace 1, and the minecraft image is painted inside the urxvt window. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? URxvt should render cleanly, not showing residues from the buffer rendered by minecraft What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? XMonad 0.11, Debian GNU/Linux unstable, nvidia 331.49 Are you using an xmonad.hs? Please attach it and the output of "xmonad --recompile". Please provide any additional information below. xmonad.hs is a simplistic example I used to exclude any misconfigurations. XTerm does not show these artifacts.

Issue 413 in xmonad: Windows don't disappear
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 06 Mar '14

06 Mar '14

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 413 by srburnet: Windows don't disappear http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=413 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Open a window (e.g., a terminal, although it happens to all types of windows) 2. Do a bunch of other work with other windows. (This doesn't happen if you open and close a window immediately). 3. Close the original window. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? The window should disappear and the wallpaper should be shown. Instead, an artifact image of the window remains, although the window itself has definitely closed. I can't interact with the window and if open a new window xmonad behaves as if there is no additional window (the screen isn't split between the two windows). I can even drag a small window around in tiling mode over the image of the window and "erase" the closed window (i.e., the wallpaper is redrawn in areas touched by the window). I've attached a screenshot that hopefully makes sense. Note that the problem is very rare. There doesn't seem to be a pattern for which windows have the problem. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? xmonad darcs, on Arch Linux. I am using the NVIDIA proprietary drivers with dual monitors (Twinview). I am not using compositing. The problem has occured with multiple versions of xmonad, the kernel versions, and the NVIDIA driver. Are you using an xmonad.hs? Please attach it and the output of "xmonad --recompile". xmonad --recompile yields no output. Attachments: xmonad.hs 5.2 KB bug.png 741 KB

Re: Issue 200 in xmonad: xmonad spins in a tight loop changing focus back and forth

Comment #11 on issue 200 by wapcaplet88: xmonad spins in a tight loop changing focus back and forth http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=200 Same issue here, on Gentoo with xmonad-0.9 and openoffice-bin-3.2.0. Adding 'export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen' to ~/.xsession worked a treat!

Getting xmonad working with GNOME 3.8?
by William Ting 23 Feb '14

23 Feb '14

Hi, I've been using xmonad in GNOME 3.2 / 3.4 / 3.6 in fallback mode just fine, but the latest upgrade to GNOME 3.8 on Arch has rendered xmonad unusable. Does anybody know how to get xmonad working on GNOME again? Thanks, William

New module for xmonad-contrib: SpawnNamedPipe
by Christian Wills 17 Feb '14

17 Feb '14

Hello Xmonad devs, Attached is a simple module that allows you to spawn a pipe and store it in the xmonad state as a String, Handle pair so that it can be accessed from a different hook from where the pipe was initially created. The initial motivation for this was I wanted to be able to spawn dzen from inside the startupHook and write to the pipe from inside the logHook. I didn't like being forced to start the dzen pipe up in a global namespace so that I could access it from the logHook. This example is detailed in the Haddocks but there are many other use cases. Cheers, Chris Wills

Xmonad + KDE4: a possible bug?
by scolfield 15 Feb '14

15 Feb '14

Hi, I've recently installed the newest KDE4 version on my Gentoo and I configured Xmonad according to http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Using_xmonad_in_KDE. There is an strange behaviour. Actually, the xmonad doens't run when KDE starts and any error is reported. KDE starts normally but the window tilling feature of Xmonad doesn't. My .xinitrc contains a single line with "exec startkde" command. And, my /etc/conf.d/xdm file contains "DISPLAYMANAGER=kdm". Moreover, i created and edited set_window_manager.sh file with "export KDEWM=/usr/bin" in ~/.kde4/env directory. I checked and the xmonad is, in fact, in /usr/bindirectory. I also mention that, I've alread installed following the same tutorial from the link above on my old computer once. And that time, everything went well. No issues. I've been wondering if I'm missing some configuration. Could you please tell me what's happening? Best regards, Scolfield .

XMonad inside Virtualbox inside XMonad
by Jacek Generowicz 14 Feb '14

14 Feb '14

Hi, Somehow XMonad and Virtualbox beetween them conspire to prevent the key I use as my XMonad modifier to be passed on to the guest OS (even when Virtualbox' key capture prevents the host's XMonad from seeing it). I have checked this by running xev in both host and guest and comparing what they see: all other modifier keys I can think of, get through to the guest except for the XMonad modifier. Obviously this makes it impossible to use XMonad sensibly in the guest. Any ideas about how to get around this problem? Thanks.

CopyWindow to pyhsical screens
by Kasza Péter 09 Feb '14

Is it possible to copy a window to another physical screen? Using CopyWindow the window seems to appear only on the "active" monitor. -- Best Regards, Peter Kasza http://www.iit.uni-miskolc.hu/~kasza1 mr.schyte(a)gmail.com () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments
