| 2021-11-09 22:29:28 | <liskin> | LWN covered that topic last year |
| 2021-11-09 22:30:13 | <liskin> | I ended up with goatcounter for my own website and I sponsor the author, who happens to maintain a filtered changelog of vim for plugin authors as well |

| 2021-11-09 22:31:04 | <liskin> | Anyway, 5 or 6 new sponsors today \o/ |

| 2021-11-10 00:20:32 | → | hippoid joins (~hippoid@c-98-220-13-8.hsd1.il.comcast.net) |
| 2021-11-10 00:20:57 | <hippoid> | is this the right place to ask about a gnome issue I'm having after xmonad? |
| 2021-11-10 00:23:04 | <geekosaur> | maybe. I'm not sure what you mean by "gnome issue … after xmonad" though |
| 2021-11-10 00:24:19 | <hippoid> | i was using gnome-tweaks to map CAPS LOCK to esc, and after installing lightdm to get the option to use Xmonad as the window manager, CAPS LOCK has gone back to being CAPS LOCK, even though it's still set in gnome-tweaks to be mapped to ESC |
| 2021-11-10 00:26:37 | <geekosaur> | that sounds like it was being applied by gdm. but if lightdm is offering xmonad, so should any other display manager; they might need some kind of restart to pick up new session definitions, though |
| 2021-11-10 00:27:14 | <geekosaur> | I think gdm in particular needs a kick to see new sessions |
| 2021-11-10 00:27:14 | → | zenex[m] joins (~zenexmatr@2001:470:69fc:105::1:3047) |
| 2021-11-10 00:27:46 | <geekosaur> | so it's possible that switching back to gdm will get you both the tweak and the xmonad session |
| 2021-11-10 00:27:59 | <hippoid> | ok, i'm going to try that. thanks |
| 2021-11-10 00:28:07 | <geekosaur> | I'm curious why you'd use a custom tweak program instead of the usual Xkb editor though |
| 2021-11-10 00:28:28 | <hippoid> | I'm a noob to linux on the desktop |
| 2021-11-10 00:28:49 | <hippoid> | do you recommend Xkb to map keys? |
| 2021-11-10 00:29:26 | <geekosaur> | also if you mean that your tweak doesn't work in xmonad, that would be expected because xmonad doesn't load the gnome settings, Xkb settings, etc. by itself, not being a desktop manager |
| 2021-11-10 00:30:11 | <geekosaur> | you could arrange to load those settings on xmonad startup but it'sa bit of a pain. I went with xmonad as window manager for the mate desktop in part so I can use mate's session startup stuff for that |
| 2021-11-10 00:30:46 | <hippoid> | so Xmonad is a windows manager, but isn't there also a desktop manager running while Xmonad is running? |
| 2021-11-10 00:31:35 | <hippoid> | I don't care what desktop manager I use. I just want Xmonad and the ability to map CAPS LOCK to esc, and want whatever is most straightforward |
| 2021-11-10 00:32:45 | <geekosaur> | no, desktop managers are a different and relatively new thing on unixlikes. in the old days people didn't really do desktops as such |
| 2021-11-10 00:33:30 | <geekosaur> | but, you know, gotta compete with windows. so came opendesktop and common desktop environment and eventually gnome and kde |
| 2021-11-10 00:35:11 | <hippoid> | Do i need a desktop manager to map CAPS LOCK to esc while using Xmonad? |
| 2021-11-10 00:37:15 | <geekosaur> | no, it just makes it easier because it'll provide (a) an easy way to edit keyboard settings (b) automatic loading of the result on session start |
| 2021-11-10 00:37:31 | <geekosaur> | so you don't have to hunt down how to edit a keyboard configuration and load it yourself |
| 2021-11-10 00:38:38 | <geekosaur> | there are also various other things that are easier with a desktop manager, including monitor setup/configuration. and you can have it load gtk themes, which is nice because default gtk is pretty ugly |
| 2021-11-10 00:40:29 | <geekosaur> | anyway many people run xmonad without a desktop manager, but we also provide instructions for using it with various desktop managers in the wiki (https://wiki.haskell.org/Xmonad) |
| 2021-11-10 00:41:42 | <hippoid> | so if i'm understanding this correctly, I'll have to configure the XMonad startup process to load gnome settings? |
| 2021-11-10 00:42:32 | <geekosaur> | yes. probably running gnome-settings-daemon from main before invoking the xmonad combinator is enough |
| 2021-11-10 00:43:00 | <hippoid> | ok, that's moving in the right direction, Thanks! |
| 2021-11-10 00:43:17 | <hippoid> | I sometimes can't believe how helpful+useful IRC is. |
