| 2020-12-21 02:37:29 | <vrs> | ohh do you have xmessage installed? |
| 2020-12-21 02:37:44 | <vrs> | that is kind of critical for seeing compile errors if you recompile via mod+q |
| 2020-12-21 02:38:06 | <vrs> | also try the following https://hastebin.com/ufuniyoduc.swift |
| 2020-12-21 02:38:28 | <annihilannic> | xmonad --recompile did not complain. mod-shift-q certainly worked though, kind of like killing X |
| 2020-12-21 02:38:42 | <vrs> | yes, mod-shift-q is quit |
| 2020-12-21 02:38:50 | <annihilannic> | yes, xmessage is installed. |
| 2020-12-21 02:43:33 | <annihilannic> | vrs: that minimal config has done the trick, thanks |
| 2020-12-21 02:46:35 | <annihilannic> | haha mod-l somehow still passes through to my windows host (running CentOS in a virtualbox VM) and locks the screen |
| 2020-12-21 02:52:55 | <Hash> | annihilannic: hi |
| 2020-12-21 02:53:05 | <annihilannic> | Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System -> DWORD DisableLockWorkstation = 1... problem solved. |

| 2020-12-21 02:54:29 | <Hash> | Here's my xmonad.hs if that helps |
| 2020-12-21 02:55:03 | <annihilannic> | Thanks, useful reference. Are you on 0.16? |
| 2020-12-21 02:55:15 | <Hash> | No idea. Whatever is in Ubuntu 20.04 |

| 2020-12-21 02:55:42 | <annihilannic> | CentOS 7 delivers 0.11, which I suspect is quite a few years old now. |
| 2020-12-21 02:55:48 | <Hash> | Ooof very |
| 2020-12-21 02:56:15 | <Hash> | https://xmonad.org/intro.html |
| 2020-12-21 02:56:34 | <Hash> | You could do cabal method |
| 2020-12-21 02:56:43 | <annihilannic> | Not sure I'm missing out on anything important though. No published repos seem to have more than 0.12, so ... okay, will look at that. |
| 2020-12-21 02:57:09 | <Hash> | Basically you will use cabal package manager and install xmonad or buld it yourself with stack |
| 2020-12-21 02:57:59 | <Hash> | https://brianbuccola.com/how-to-install-xmonad-and-xmobar-via-stack/ this may also shed light on how to build it |

| 2020-12-21 03:00:05 | <Hash> | I don't know CentOS |
| 2020-12-21 03:00:10 | <Hash> | Or how old it is |
| 2020-12-21 03:00:40 | <vrs> | well you're in luck, the config format has hardly changed since 0.11 |
| 2020-12-21 03:01:22 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | I'm having such an issue with xmobar... in the StdinReader, it says it could not parse string : <fc=yellow> blah blah blah instead of actually showing my workspaces numbers (sending confs in next message) |
| 2020-12-21 03:01:44 | <vrs> | the biggest change is that newer versions use `def` for default values and 0.11 does not, it usually has a type specific one |
| 2020-12-21 03:01:55 | <annihilannic> | CentOS 7, releaseed 2014, so.. not new. Clone of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, designed to be a stable software set so it doesn't get updated very aggressively. |

| 2020-12-21 03:03:02 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | PS : running xmonad 0.15 |
| 2020-12-21 03:03:36 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | Hash: I'm pretty new to xmonad, not really sure of what you're asking me ^^ |
| 2020-12-21 03:03:41 | <Hash> | Hang on nop |
| 2020-12-21 03:03:43 | <Hash> | np |
| 2020-12-21 03:03:55 | <Hash> | template ="%StdinReader% Cpu Temp: %tcpu%C %cpu% Mem: %memory% %swap%} %date%{" You're not using any format strings |
| 2020-12-21 03:04:22 | <Hash> | your log hook is fin |
| 2020-12-21 03:04:23 | <Hash> | fine |
| 2020-12-21 03:04:56 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | I think I understand |
| 2020-12-21 03:04:59 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | I have to tell him how to read the crap xmonad sends him |
| 2020-12-21 03:05:02 | <Hash> | I don't know xmobar in detail but I see potential problem that you probably need to use format strings to display the stdinreader |
| 2020-12-21 03:05:06 | <Hash> | or anything |
| 2020-12-21 03:05:11 | <Hash> | I dont' know this, let me test |

| 2020-12-21 03:05:25 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | (I actually have no idea of how to do that) |
| 2020-12-21 03:05:27 | <Hash> | That's my template string if that helps |
| 2020-12-21 03:06:06 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | `<fc=#FE6BD2>%StdinReader%</fc>` |
| 2020-12-21 03:06:12 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | I assume I have to copy/paste this part |
| 2020-12-21 03:06:36 | <Hash> | Not sure. But why it is complaining about this <fc=yellow> |
| 2020-12-21 03:06:41 | <Hash> | When that's not even in your template string |
| 2020-12-21 03:07:35 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | and then put white everywhere |
| 2020-12-21 03:07:36 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | idk |
| 2020-12-21 03:07:42 | <Hash> | https://termbin.com/b9fa this is my xmboarrc |
| 2020-12-21 03:07:51 | <Hash> | Please compare and contrast |
| 2020-12-21 03:08:02 | <Hash> | Also, you can replace a few of your things with xmobar plugins |
| 2020-12-21 03:08:31 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | I didn't knew xmobar had plugins |
| 2020-12-21 03:08:38 | <Hash> | You have read the docs at all? |
| 2020-12-21 03:09:05 | <Hash> | https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmobar |
| 2020-12-21 03:09:13 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | not everything, just tried to get working workspaces and clocks, the rest is not vital ^^ |
| 2020-12-21 03:09:16 | <Hash> | There is a ridiculous amount of plugins |
| 2020-12-21 03:09:27 | <Hash> | I see |
| 2020-12-21 03:09:45 | <Hash> | What do you mean 'get workspaces working' in xmobar? |
| 2020-12-21 03:09:58 | <Hash> | StdInreader shows the curent workspace, not all of them |
| 2020-12-21 03:10:23 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | actually I don't have workspaces displayed |
| 2020-12-21 03:10:32 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | yeah but right now there is nothing at all |
| 2020-12-21 03:11:04 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | just a huge error that takes the whole bar |
| 2020-12-21 03:11:06 | <Hash> | It shows the active workspace and active window title |
| 2020-12-21 03:11:24 | <Hash> | Let me try your config verbatim |
| 2020-12-21 03:11:26 | <Hash> | brb |
| 2020-12-21 03:12:25 | <Hash> | Ok so I get blank bar |
| 2020-12-21 03:12:26 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | ima do same with yours |
| 2020-12-21 03:12:29 | <Hash> | nothing. absolutely nothing. |
| 2020-12-21 03:12:38 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | I get same error with your config |
| 2020-12-21 03:12:44 | <Hash> | Ha. |
| 2020-12-21 03:13:06 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | + it doesn't displays on the good screen but that's a detail |
| 2020-12-21 03:13:17 | <Hash> | I do lower on start = false and no bar at all |
| 2020-12-21 03:14:20 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | so the problem's not from my config |
| 2020-12-21 03:14:27 | <Hash> | I don't know. |
| 2020-12-21 03:14:28 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | as I get the same with yours |
| 2020-12-21 03:14:45 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | so it comes from my xmonad config ? |
| 2020-12-21 03:15:34 | <By_JumperX4[m]> | I got xmonad 0.15 and xmobar 0.36 |
