| 01:16:01 | <fizzie> | Ugh. Steam has never played terribly well with my Xmonad configuration (context menus sometimes don't want to show up), but this latest update just got it into a completely broken "window borders keeps flickering between active/inactive, xmonad process uses 100% CPU and mostly doesn't accept any keyboard/mouse input" mode. Wonder what's up with that. |
| 01:18:42 | <geekosaur> | "focus war", usually means the app has decided to steal focus back every time xmonad reassigns it |
| 01:23:12 | <geekosaur> | I am curious as to what X events are happening in that situation, but getting that information is moderately nightmarish even for an expert |
| 01:23:28 | <fizzie> | Yeah. It's happened very rarely in some other situations as well, but now it seems very constant. |
| 01:24:28 | <fizzie> | Tried it with no other windows (to speak of; there's a few bars) visible, and it did the same thing for its "waiting for network" splash dialog; then Xmonad just exited. Have to check what it wrote in the log. |
| 01:24:57 | <fizzie> | "xmonad-x86_64-linux: user error (Error in function getWindowAttributes)" apparently. |
| 01:25:16 | <fizzie> | This might not be a very up-to-date copy of Xmonad, should probably fix that first before digging any deeper. |
| 01:25:35 | <geekosaur> | race condition (although that means we missed a bracket somewhere) where a window went away before it could be queried |
| 01:26:53 | <geekosaur> | which suggests that instead of a focus war, the program is spamming window creations/deletions |
| 01:48:09 | <fizzie> | Mhm. It did seem to do it even after updating to latest commit. However removing `withUrgencyHook NoUrgencyHook` from my config (as suggested in https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9376#issuecomment-1904614763 for similar issues) does seem to have fixed it. |
| 01:50:03 | <geekosaur> | that seems odd; with `NoUrgencyHook` it only tracks urgency |
| 01:51:53 | <fizzie> | I do also have a logHook that calls `readUrgents` as well. (And then includes the results in a thing that gets written to DBus.) |
| 01:53:01 | <geekosaur> | right, but that shouldn't do anything that would cause steam to delete/recreate a window |
| 01:54:43 | <geekosaur> | it does getWindowAttributes to look for the X11-style urgency flag, then checks _NET_WM_STATE for the EWMH/Wayland-like urgency flag |
| 02:04:33 | <fizzie> | Yeah, I can't really see how that'd affect Steam either. Over on the other end of that DBus signal, my bar does change the style in which a workspace is displayed, but that seems quite unrelated too. |
| 02:05:26 | <fizzie> | TBH, I don't think I have anything that actually sets the urgency hint for anything meaningful, so I'd be fine just not having that (modulo being annoyed at not understanding a problem). |
| 02:06:12 | <geekosaur> | ironically, I'm using one right now (hexchat 🙂 ) |
| 02:08:28 | <fizzie> | Definitely had something when I originally set it up (an email client of some sort maybe), but... |
| 02:09:32 | <fizzie> | The Steam menu bar is still broken (as described in that issue; clicking just makes the menu flash briefly open but then close itself immediately) even after the urgency thing, but that's how it's been for a while and sounds like an unrelated problem. |

| 20:39:22 | <haskellbridge> | <m​c47> Solid geekosaur do we just merge #878? I'll keep it in mind for the release notes. |
| 20:41:46 | <geekosaur> | we asked for comments on reddit, so far nobody has said anything |
| 20:42:07 | <geekosaur> | I vote for merge, I think Solid already commented on the ticket |
