Re: [xmonad] Recommended setup for coding

I have just started xmonad without Gnome: apparently no problem. There seems to be something wrong with the gnome integration of xmonad-darcs. Cheers, Ralph Am Montag, den 25.01.2010, 20:10 +0100 schrieb Ralph Hofmann:

The problem persists.

But: The only window, that makes xmonad hang, seems to be the terminal window, where I killed metacity and started xmonad. As long, as I keep it open, everything seems to be fine. I can open another terminal and close it without a problem. But as soon, as I kill the switching terminal, xmonad hangs. Other windows are having problems only after that.

When I start a session with xmonad from the beginning, in order to avoid the terminal, xmonad hangs instantly.

xmonad.errors is empty and Xsession-errors has only some errors about "atk-bridge-WARNING: AT_SPI_REGISTRY was not started at session startup.", which I am having since long before I started using xmonad. Nothing about xmonad.

Ralph

This kind of thing is generally the result of building in the wrong order. Can you try cleaning, re-building, and installing, in order:

1. X11 2. xmonad 3. xmonad-contrib 4. xmonad.hs (cleaning involves taking out any .o's/.hi's from .xmonad and .xmonad/lib)

and then let us know if the problem persists? If so, ~/.Xsession-errors, ~/.xmonad/xmonad.errors, or the output of xmonad itself may give more information as well, so please send those.

Cheers, ~d

Everything with xmonad in its name removed and installed again with "cabal install xmonad xmonad-contrib": it works.

Then reinstalled from the darcs directories: it still works.

I guess, I have xmonad-darcs working now.

No, that was too fast. I had just hitten the send-email button and got a freeze.

I am now back to the version from "cabal install xmonad ..." (which freezes too) and have found something, that I can reproduce:

I start the session with metacity, open a terminal and enter "killall metacity && xmonad &". Now I am on xmonad with the terminal still open. When I close the terminal with the kill-shortkey (by default (modm .|. shiftMask, xK_c)) I get a freeze. It's only partial, I can call Gnome-Do for example, but I can't switch workspaces anymore. I also got freezes when starting firefox.

I have added my xmonad.hs, in case someone would like to check it.
