I'm trying to figure out why XMonad isn't tiling rdesktop by default (and hopefully change it). Whenever I launch rdesktop, the window gets floated. I'm
There is also a built-in criterion: if a window declares its default size, minimum size, and maximum size the same (see WM_NORMAL_HINTS in xprop) then xmonad floats it because it cannot satisfy a fixed window size with a tile whose size depends on the tiling algorithm as modified by tabs, struts, etc. You should be able to override this in the manageHook. If rdesktop is applying the -geometry option to all three of those sizes then rdesktop would need to be modified to do something more sensible (but note that it may be doing that to work around other window managers' behavior!). -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
