Ok - i did this and restarted pidgin, and still nothing. Where would the dzen bar appear? i have other dzen instances running just fine. if it matters, here's the relevant lines from my config:

statusBarCmd= "dzen2 -bg '#2c2c32' -fg 'grey70' -w 370 -x 0 -ta l -p -e ''" main = do din <- spawnPipe statusBarCmd xmonad $ withUrgencyHook dzenUrgencyHook { args = ["-bg", "purple", "-fg", "white", "-xs", "-1"] } $ sConfig d

Certainly I see nothing on screen 1 --- should I? And for how long, and where? I don't even know what I am supposed to be seeing. :)

Hmm, shouldn't it be "1" instead of "-1" after "-xs"?

So it should -- changed, but *still* nothing. :(

I don't use Xinerama, so I don't know the behaviour with more than one screen, but the dzen notification should appear on top of your screen, for about 1 or two seconds. I'm far too ignorant about xmonad and dzen to be sure, actually.

Thanks though Is there some way to debug this?

Have you tried a basic config from a template? Such as on the wiki? Maybe it's something in your config?

where do i find such a template? David.
