Hi,
I've recently upgraded from xmonad v0.8 to v0.9. In v0.8, I was able to restart xmonad within a running Gnome session. This is extremely useful when trying out different modifications of ones xmonad.hs file. However, when doing the same in v0.9 it completely messes up Gnome making the Gnome. Which means I need to log out/log in, and kind of defeats the purpose of restarting xmonad.
I am using the following keybinding to restart xmonad:
-- Restart xmonad , ((modMask .|. controlMask, xK_q ), broadcastMessage ReleaseResources >> restart "xmonad" True)
Is this still the right command?
Thanks,
It did get changed, though I don't see how using the newer version (does the recompile in the background) will interact differently with gnome. Check here for the newer version: http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Config_archive/Template_xmonad.hs_%280... Could you describe in more detail what you mean by:
same in v0.9 it completely messes up Gnome making the Gnome. Which
