Hi all,
thank you for all the feedback about the xmobar stuff: I have resolved in using an external script which manages both xmobar instances, except for the one that is with spawnPipe. It works and seems reasonable.
Now, there is something more I'd like to fix. I have a Lenovo X220, and I am trying to use the mute/volume buttons. I have read something online about using this:
((0, XF86AudioLowerVolume), spawn "amixer -c 0 set Master 2dB-") ((0, XF86AudioRaiseVolume), spawn "amixer -c 0 set Master 2dB+")
[in this case xmonad --recompile returns something along the line of "there is no XF86AudioRaiseVolume in current context"]
The problem is/was that these keys are named a little differently in the Haskell bindings: http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/X11/1.5.0.0/doc/html/Graphics-X1... Another option would be to use XMonad.Utils.EZConfig.additionalKeysP, which allows you to specify the key combinations as a string, e.g. "<XF86AudioLowerVolume>". Cheers, Daniel
