Re: [xmonad] modMask + q not reloading xmonad

Hy, is it realy "~/bin" in your path or is it "/home/username/bin".

I had to hard code the path into my .xsession file, because ~/bin isn't there when the x session starts. What do you mean by "isnt there when the xsession starts"? I should be there and you shouldnt have to hardcode the path. This should be your error, if you have to hardcode the path, then this would lead into the problem uppon restarting xmonad you described.

I downloaded and built the following sources:

Cabal-1.4.0.2.tar.gz X11-1.4.2.tar.gz X11-extras-0.4.tar.gz xmonad-0.8.tar.gz xmonad-contrib-0.8.tar.gz

Hy, is the "xmonad" binary on your path? Can you execute "xmonad" from the commandline? Show us your $PATH ("echo $PATH" on a cmdline) and tell us where you got the xmonad-binary ("xmonad", perhaps in /home/username/bin)

Hello all,

I'm brand new to xmonad, and having a great time with it. There have been a few problems, though, that I can't seem to figure out. The first is that modMask+q does not reload xmonad, like I read somewhere it should. It doesn't pop up an xmessage error window, either. There is no indication that anything is happening (at least none I am aware of), other than the q is not sent to the active X client (which implies it's bound to something, right?). Any ideas?

thanks
