I have searched the documention, and googled it. I had xmonad-0.4.1 running with extensions. I now have the default xmonad-0.5 running, and responding to changes in the ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs. But, I can't get it see any contrib extension. e.g., if I put "import XMonad.foo" in ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs, and hit alt-q, I get the popup screen saying: *** Error detected while loading xmonad configuration file: /home/whatever/.xmonad/xmonad.hs xmonad.hs:17:7: Could not find module `XMonad.foo': it is not a module in the current program, or in any known package. Please check the file for errors. *** My xmonad source is here: /root/xmonad/xmonad-0.5 I did this for root (entered as root): runhaskell Setup configure runhaskell Setup build runhaskell Setup install The executable and xmonad.hs are here: /root/.xmonad I did this for username (entered as root): runhaskell Setup configure --user --prefix=/home/username runhaskell Setup build runhaskell Setup install --user The executable and xmonad.hs are here: /home/username/.xmonad My xmonad-contrib source is here: /root/xmonad/xmonad-contrib-0.5 I ran the same commands as above. I need to know where to put xmonad-contrib-0.5 (?), or parts of it (?), or the extension.hs files themselves (?) such as NoBorders.hs, or, how to "register" them (?) to make them visible. (I tried putting xmonad-contrib-0.5 under xmonad-0.5, for example. Etc.) Now that we have on-the-fly config, I shouldn't have to recompile anything, right? The excellent documentation includes good examples of includes in the xmonad.hs, but I don't see this problem discussed. I hope my problem suggests an improvement to the documentation, rather than density on my part.
