Re: [xmonad] Swing and keyboard

Hi, Am Tue, 17 Mar 2009 13:22:30 -0700 schrieb Kendall Shaw :

I have to use some applications that use swing, e.g. intellij IDEA. Sometimes the keyboard stops working for them.

I have both AMT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit environment variable and I have setWMName "LG3D" in Hooks/EwmhDesktops.hs, but I still have the keyboard problem.

Are there any other work arounds?

After the comment on issue 177 earlier today, I tried the patch, too, and it seems to work for me (xmonad-darcs, jdk 1.6.0_11). Maybe you'll have luck with it, too: it's the "failed fix attempt" at comment #2 http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=177 What does the patch brake, why isn't it applied to the repo?
