Comment #10 on issue 576 by martin.s...@gmail.com: On FreeBSD Xmonad loses first hotkey sometimes http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=576 Yes. Indeed this workaround using tcsh appears to help. I haven't tested it very extensively, yet, but the main symptoms are gone. I still suspect that it is some kind of race condition with timers/signals. Maybe the startup of /bin/sh is very fast on FreeBSD. Cannot tell for sure what's going on. I also compiled with "-rtsopts -with-rtsopts -v0" (I checked ps output during compilation if it really uses the flags). It did not improve anything and did not make truss faster (still listing setitimer, alarms etc). I am getting just about the same output as above. Btw, FreeBSD upgraded to GHC 7.8.3 a few days ago and the problem persists. Tim's workaround still helps here. -- You received this message because this project is configured to send all issue notifications to this address.
