Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 462 by punitagr...@gmail.com: Ewmh desktop handle event doesn't correctly handle _NET_WM_DESKTOP message type http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=462 In xmonad-contrib source package, in the folder XMonad/Hooks/EwmhDesktops.hs in the "handle" function when processing "_NET_WM_DESKTOP" message type the argument n is checked for 0 <= n <= length ws. The specification at http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/wm-spec-1.3.html#id2507080 states that when n is 0xffffffff the window is requesting to be placed on all desktops. Instead xmonad logs an error to .xsession-errors file. This bug triggered for me when trying to use xmonad as the window manager within kde. On launching krunner using "Windows-P" combination from kde4Config krunner doesn't appear. I am using ver 0.9.1 of xmonad on Kde 4.5.5 in Ubuntu 10.10. I had a quick look at the code to see if there was an easy fix but my Haskell is quite poor to attempt any changes. I'll be glad to test a fix though. Thanks, Punit Attachments: xmonad.hs.bak 2.2 KB
