New issue 537 by dansp...@gmail.com: xmonad does not process urxvt+vim
repaint request
http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=537
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open a terminal
2. urxvt -e "/bin/bash" -c "vim "
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The buffer is distorted:
-The bottom half of the text is not visible (black area)
-The lines that are visible are not the correct lines (e.g. line 10 is
rendered where line 50 should be), moving the vim cursor to a line repaints
that line, but that line only
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
XMonad 0.10 on Ubuntu 12.10
Are you using an xmonad.hs? Please attach it and the output of "xmonad
--recompile".
Using stock xmonad.hs results in the same problems, so I did not attacch my
xmonad.hs.
Please provide any additional information below.
This problem disappears if you add a long enough sleep before opening vim,
e.g.:
urxvt -e "/bin/zsh" -c "sleep 1; vim "
I really have no clue how XMonad interacts with X or how X works, but my
best guess is that there is some kind of race condition and XMonad misses
the repaint command from urxvt.
