| 02:43:05 | <narcht074> | I'm sorry |
| 02:43:12 | <narcht074> | Is this xmonad chat? |
| 02:43:59 | <TheWizardTower[m> | last I checked. |
| 02:44:00 | <TheWizardTower[m> | sup? |
| 02:44:08 | <narcht074> | yeah |
| 02:44:19 | <narcht074> | Do you know a lot about xmonad? |
| 02:44:45 | <TheWizardTower[m> | shrug That's all relative. What issue are you running into to? |
| 02:47:42 | <narcht074> | one day my xmonad was running just fine, then i reboot my pc and when I tried to log in, thi error appears: " Starting version 149.5-2-arch /dev/nvme0n1p2: clean, 765387/30662656 files, 19340542/122641683 blocks |
| 02:48:32 | <narcht074> | I've tried to reinstall, and update everything |
| 03:01:51 | × | catman quits (~catman@user/catman) (Ping timeout: 268 seconds) |
| 03:02:14 | <narcht074> | is there anybody there? |
| 03:02:26 | <narcht074> | does anyone know how to solve this? please |
| 03:02:29 | <TheWizardTower[m> | Yes. I'm at work, so sometimes things come up. |
| 03:02:48 | <TheWizardTower[m> | Where does that error appear? Which log file, and when? |
| 03:03:00 | <narcht074> | Oh, ok, I'm not used to irc |
| 03:03:04 | × | banc quits (banc@gateway/vpn/airvpn/banc) (Ping timeout: 268 seconds) |
| 03:03:22 | <TheWizardTower[m> | "version 149.5-2-arch" doesn't sound like anything xmonad/ghc/haskell related. |
| 03:03:24 | → | catman joins (~catman@user/catman) |
| 03:03:42 | <narcht074> | it appear on some black screen when i click the botton log in, and then appears this black screen with that message, close, and get back to the log in screen |
| 03:05:42 | <narcht074> | the "version 149..." appears on the first line, and the "/dev/..." appears on the second line |
| 03:12:46 | <TheWizardTower[m> | so, let's drill down. |
| 03:12:56 | × | catman quits (~catman@user/catman) (Ping timeout: 268 seconds) |

| 03:19:09 | <narcht074> | yes I can use awesome and I'm using xfce4 right now |
| 03:19:18 | <TheWizardTower[m> | okay. |
| 03:19:30 | <TheWizardTower[m> | if you start up a terminal, and run xmonad --replace, what output do you get? |
| 03:19:44 | <TheWizardTower[m> | if it's a bunch, use pastebin. |
| 03:22:36 | → | banc joins (banc@gateway/vpn/airvpn/banc) |
| 03:23:28 | <narcht074> | XMonad is recompiling and replacing itself another XMonad process because the current process is called "xmonad" but the compiled configuration should be called "xmonad-x86_64-linux" |
| 03:23:29 | <narcht074> | XMonad will use ghc to recompile, because "/home/rico/.xmonad/build" does not exist. |
| 03:23:29 | <narcht074> | XMonad skipping recompile because it is not forced (e.g. via --recompile), and neither xmonad.hs nor any *.hs / *.lhs / *.hsc files in lib/ have been changed. |

| 03:25:12 | <narcht074> | hello, I'm sorry and I'm back, I left by mistake |
| 03:25:37 | <TheWizardTower[m> | so it looks like the dbus library binding isn't there. |
| 03:25:52 | <narcht074> | what should I do? |
| 03:25:53 | <TheWizardTower[m> | how are you building xmonad? |
| 03:26:25 | <narcht074> | I've never built anything |
| 03:26:36 | <TheWizardTower[m> | well, basic thing to check, do you have the libHSdbus library installed? |
| 03:26:46 | <narcht074> | no idea |
| 03:26:51 | <narcht074> | how i check ? |
| 03:27:02 | <TheWizardTower[m> | what distro are you running? |
| 03:27:12 | <narcht074> | arch ( arcolinux) |
| 03:28:07 | <TheWizardTower[m> | pacman -Fx 'libHSdbus*' |
| 03:28:50 | <narcht074> | yes it is installed |
| 03:29:02 | <TheWizardTower[m> | hm. okay. rad. |
| 03:30:05 | <TheWizardTower[m> | run pacman -Syu |
| 03:30:13 | <TheWizardTower[m> | then xmonad --recompile |
| 03:30:48 | <narcht074> | ok |
| 03:33:45 | <narcht074> | What is the way that i can send you long texts? |
| 03:33:56 | <TheWizardTower[m> | pastebin.org |
| 03:36:07 | <narcht074> | https://pastebin.com/LsUfJtyK |
| 03:37:13 | <TheWizardTower[m> | okay. something is very broke. hm. |
| 03:37:25 | <TheWizardTower[m> | do you have all the xmonad packages/libraries installed? |
| 03:38:30 | <TheWizardTower[m> | secondly, can you move your ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs somewhere else, put in a stock config, then try xmonad --recomplie again? |
| 03:40:34 | <narcht074> | how do I check the packages/libraries? |
| 03:40:56 | <narcht074> | what is a stock config? |
| 03:42:23 | <TheWizardTower[m> | something minimal. examples: https://wiki.haskell.org/Xmonad/Config_archive/Template_xmonad.hs_(darcs) |
| 03:42:37 | <TheWizardTower[m> | so |
| 03:42:37 | <TheWizardTower[m> | import XMonad |
| 03:42:37 | <TheWizardTower[m> | main = xmonad defaultConfig |
| 03:44:12 | <narcht074> | on terminal? |
| 03:44:58 | <TheWizardTower[m> | so, fundamentals. your xmonad config lives in your home directory, under ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs |
| 03:45:10 | <TheWizardTower[m> | that describes the main function of your xmonad binary. |
| 03:45:32 | <TheWizardTower[m> | I want to get that building again. Start with something dumb simple, and slowly add things in. |
| 03:45:34 | <TheWizardTower[m> | to see what broke where. |
| 03:46:01 | <TheWizardTower[m> | as for "how do you check packages/libraries" |
| 03:46:01 | <TheWizardTower[m> | pacman -Ss xmonad |

| 03:47:19 | <narcht074> | |
| 03:47:40 | <narcht074> | SO what should I do now? do you want me to send you my xmonad.hs? or to change it? |
| 03:49:17 | <TheWizardTower[m> | hmm. worrisome that xmonad is at 0.15 and the contrib is at 0.16. I think the latest version is 0.17. |
| 03:53:00 | <narcht074> | but i just did pacman -Syu |
| 03:53:51 | <TheWizardTower[m> | Right. Which may suggest that the packages are in a broken/inconsistent state on the arcolinux side. |
| 03:54:39 | <TheWizardTower[m> | Or something weird is happening on your machine. |
| 03:55:00 | <TheWizardTower[m> | It's deeply worrisome that xmonad --recompile gives you a bunch of errors about how it couldn't find the XMonad library. |
| 03:55:36 | <narcht074> | do you think that make I should reinstall arco? |
| 03:55:46 | <narcht074> | maybe** not make |
| 03:56:52 | <narcht074> | or some other operating system that i can use my xmonad ( because i don't like ubuntu nor mint nor debin...) |
| 03:56:53 | <TheWizardTower[m> | The thought has crossed my mind. I'd suggest trying something like building xmonad with stack, because stack is really good about fetching dependencies if you configure it right. |
| 03:57:05 | <TheWizardTower[m> | FWIW, it works pretty well for me on Fedora. |
| 03:57:18 | <narcht074> | what is it? |
| 03:57:32 | <TheWizardTower[m> | But it's probably worthwhile to install Arco into a VM, put your xmonad config onto it, and see if it builds fresh there. |
| 03:57:51 | <TheWizardTower[m> | Fedora linux. It's a distro run by red hat (...yeah, I know...), but it tends to be pretty robust and reliable. |
| 03:58:33 | <narcht074> | yeah i know, i meant what is fwiw |
| 03:59:19 | <TheWizardTower[m> | oh |
| 03:59:23 | <TheWizardTower[m> | "for what it's worth" |
| 04:00:06 | <narcht074> | because ok maybe the problem is with my pc, because when i was trying to install arco it had a lot of bugs and errors, but why xmonad worked in first place, and why just xmonad stopped now? |
| 04:00:18 | <narcht074> | thanks |
| 04:01:49 | <narcht074> | But anyways how do I build xmonad, or where can i learn it? |
| 04:02:11 | <TheWizardTower[m> | My guess was that having xmonad be at .015 and the contrib library be 0.16 was the problem. |
| 04:02:18 | <TheWizardTower[m> | But that's how it's set up on my machine as well, and it runs fine. |
| 04:03:17 | <TheWizardTower[m> | So something went bork with your build environment. |
| 04:03:55 | <narcht074> | what if i delet my .xmonad, and unistall everything and install again? |
| 04:04:25 | <TheWizardTower[m> | I'd suggest copying your xmonad.hs file first, but that'd be a good step. :) |
| 04:04:42 | <TheWizardTower[m> | copy your config file off somewhere else, assuming you've put some time into customizing it. |
| 04:04:57 | <narcht074> | But I've never had maked any config |
| 04:05:07 | <TheWizardTower[m> | spooky. okay. |
| 04:05:19 | <TheWizardTower[m> | copy it over anyway. |
| 04:05:25 | <TheWizardTower[m> | better safe than sorry. |
| 04:05:25 | <narcht074> | ok |
| 04:05:53 | <narcht074> | copyed |
| 04:06:06 | <TheWizardTower[m> | right. nuke your ~/.xmonad directory. |
| 04:06:11 | <TheWizardTower[m> | then run xmonad --recompile |

| 15:09:56 | <jakefromstatefar> | I had a similar problem |
| 15:09:56 | <jakefromstatefar> | I fixed it by nuking my ghc/cabal db, then re-installing everything via [`nix`](https://nixos.org/nix) |
| 15:11:27 | <geekosaur> | sounds to me like they're just missing the haskell dbus binding which can presumably be installed via pacman. although if that was updated cabal or stack would not know about it and you would indeed need to nuke their stores and start over |
| 15:11:55 | <geekosaur> | cabal and stack both expect to have full control over all deps, not to have a system package manager whacking things around behind their backs |

| 15:55:34 | <geekosaur> | so we've been tossing around the gdpr implications of ircbrowse (try some of the links at the top of the log page, in addition to the logging itself). noting that I'm in the US so know relatively little about EU regulations, but it's looking smart to (a) set an ENTRYMSG warning about logging, and (b) set up an #xmonad-unlogged |
| 15:58:29 | <geekosaur> | hm, apparently I don't have perms to set up #xmonad-unlogged, although I'm in there for now |
| 16:00:09 | <geekosaur> | have set the entrymsg to note the logging and point people to #xmonad-unlogged if they have GDPR concerns or otherwise don't want to be logged |
| 16:00:48 | <geekosaur> | discussion is in #haskell-offtopic if you want to weigh in (it's also unlogged, so you can't see the past discussion) |
| 16:04:16 | <mc47> | ENTRYMSG should definitely be included |
| 16:05:15 | <geekosaur> | [03 15:57:29] -ChanServ- The entry message for #xmonad has been set to This channel is logged at http://ircbrowse.tomsmeding.com/browse/lcxmonad. If you do not wish to be logged or have EU GDPR concerns, try #xmonad-unlogged instead. |
| 16:07:14 | <geekosaur> | probably some more of us should join #xmonad-unlogged because my network is somewhat flaky and the channel will go away next time I fall off |

| 17:34:55 | <SenranKaguya> | xmonad unfocuses the current window for a brief moment when pressing a key when, even if the key is mapped to return () |
| 17:35:48 | <SenranKaguya> | my guess as to why is KeyEvent queries the focused Window, which causes an update to X () |
| 17:36:37 | <geekosaur> | my guess as to why is xmonad's passive grab becomes an active grab, but the grab is not held by a window so all windows become unfocused briefly? |
| 17:36:40 | <SenranKaguya> | could i avoid the momentary unfocus if I make my own KeyEvent that doesn't read any state? |
| 17:36:48 | <geekosaur> | xmonad already knows the focused window from the StackSet |
| 17:38:56 | <geekosaur> | also reading the state does not change it |
| 17:39:15 | <geekosaur> | it would be weird if getting the focused window unfocused it |
| 17:40:39 | <geekosaur> | hm, actually that sounds weird anyway because we don't update windows on KeyPress so borders shouldn't change at all |
| 17:40:59 | <geekosaur> | are you by any chance running a compositor or something? |
| 17:41:18 | <SenranKaguya> | really? if I bind a key to return () and hold that key down with something like firefox some UI elements flicker |
| 17:41:26 | <SenranKaguya> | yes, i'm running picom |
| 17:42:09 | <geekosaur> | I think I had to set use-ewmh-active-win (I already had EwmhDesktops enabled) to make it behave correctly |
| 17:42:36 | <geekosaur> | and, UI elements inside a window should not be affected at all; xmonad is not in control of those |
| 17:43:00 | <geekosaur> | so this may be a firefox bug |
| 17:44:38 | <geekosaur> | mrh. but if I mod-k on my workspace containing only a chrome window, its border does flicker. then again the stackset is being updated (even though it's a null update) so windows is called afterward |
| 17:45:32 | <geekosaur> | same with mod-t but it's less noticeable (but it has the same problem, windows is called afterward) |
| 17:48:33 | <liskin> | There's PureX for these null updates btw |
| 17:49:19 | <geekosaur> | but is it used inside of X.O.windows so it knows when no update is actually needed? |
| 17:49:47 | × | cfricke quits (~cfricke@user/cfricke) (Quit: WeeChat 3.3) |
| 17:50:10 | <geekosaur> | I think windows always re-lays out the whole stack |
| 17:50:51 | <SenranKaguya> | setting use-ewmh-active-win didn't seem to have an effect, and even after killing picom some windows still flicker |
| 17:54:07 | <geekosaur> | sigh, now I want to set a key to delay for 1-2s and see if windows lose focus for that long, then drill down and see why we're calling windows before processing the key |
| 17:59:49 | <geekosaur> | didn't lose focus. so are we always calling windows after running the key action? |
| 18:01:04 | <liskin> | geekosaur: no, it replaces windows |
| 18:08:15 | <Solid> | geekosaur: gdpr is also explicitly opt-out (though many people often conveniently forget that) so I don't actually think #*-unlogged would cut it |
| 18:08:27 | <Solid> | sorry, opt-in, not opt-out |
| 18:09:55 | <geekosaur> | so either we go with glguy's claim that gdpr does not apply here, or irc logging is against the gdpr |

| 18:16:05 | <geekosaur> | hm, the problems with having a delay in the action are (a) can't sanely hold the key down to loop over it (b) can't easily tell where the focus loss is happening. it does disprove the assertion that it's "looking at state" that causes it, but so does reading the code |
| 18:17:27 | <geekosaur> | erm, wait. do we *always* call xrrUpdateConfiguration? |

| 18:36:08 | <geekosaur> | JumpToLayout is easy, you need to import XMonad hiding ((|||)) and explicitly import (|||) from ManageHelpers |
| 18:36:23 | <geekosaur> | (this changes in 0.17) |
| 18:36:55 | <geekosaur> | jakefromstatefar, a command cannot take focus |
| 18:37:30 | <geekosaur> | and there are no focus changes or other invocations of X.O.windows involved with the KeyPress handler |
| 18:38:17 | <geekosaur> | sorry I think I mean LayoutCombinators |

| 18:59:39 | <geekosaur> | meanwhile, with respect to fullscreening apps, I think the problem is that fullscreening is exactly that, it takes over everything including the reserved dock area |
| 19:00:47 | <SenranKaguya> | geekosaur: i can get the same focus loss i'm seeing to hold if i use mappings that await another keypress, e.g. i have "M-g f" and "M-g p" bound and i press "M-g", some elements of windows will dim until i press esc or f/g |
| 19:00:51 | <geekosaur> | btw lines 123-125 do nothing since you're not referencing those definitions. you're instead specifying them explicitly above that, in the definitions of tiled and stackTile |
| 19:01:42 | <SenranKaguya> | so the flicker may not be from updating the stackset |
| 19:02:14 | <geekosaur> | hm, now that's interesting. I also use additionalKeysP, so now I wonder fi it's related to that |
| 19:03:36 | <liskin> | I think this fullscreening business deserves a FAQ entry |

| 22:07:55 | <geekosaur> | https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.17.0/docs/XMonad-Hooks-ManageDocks.html#v:avoidStrutsOn |
| 22:08:35 | <geekosaur> | avoidStruts is avoidStrutsOn [U,D,L,R] |
| 22:09:39 | <geekosaur> | you may have to move avoidStruts to other layouts instead of over all of them to have things work as expected |
| 22:17:37 | <FOSSHuman[m]> | <geekosaur> "you may have to move avoidStruts..." <- Nice thank you.. |

| 23:41:54 | geekosaur | wonders if they are actually going to ask a question, or if we're to guess what that earlier discussion was since they don't seem to have used anything like that nick |
