I've been running into an interesting problem lately. I use a very basic xmonad/xmobar setup (system info below); not much more than the sample plus some hotkeys. Recently, when I start xmonad (either with startx or MOD+q) xmobar is covered by any windows, as if I did not have manageDocks in my manageHook function. However, it only does this on the screen/desktop that is active when xmonad is (re)started.
If you are running 0.12 then this is at least partly the strut caching bug; downgrade to 0.11 or upgrade to git HEAD. For xmonad-contrib HEAD, docksEventHook is no longer optional (as of 0.12 release) and there is a docksStartupHook that is also required (this is not in 0.12). -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
