| 2022-02-27 19:14:27 | <unknownbeing[m]> | After a package update I'm unable to log into Xmonad for some reason. I tried to downgrade to no avail. Could someone please help? |
| 2022-02-27 19:14:54 | <unknownbeing[m]> | xmonad --recompile does a successful build |
| 2022-02-27 19:17:42 | <unknownbeing[m]> | Wait, now it logs in, but xmobar doesn't work for some reason |
| 2022-02-27 19:19:15 | <unknownbeing[m]> | Says "error while loading shared libraries: libHSxml-conduit-1.9.1.1-[some gibberish]-ghc9.0.2.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory |
| 2022-02-27 19:19:49 | <geekosaur> | someone forgot to flag that in arch for a rebuild, is my guess |
| 2022-02-27 19:20:06 | <geekosaur> | one of the downsides of how arch handles haskell packages |
| 2022-02-27 19:20:13 | <unknownbeing[m]> | Ugh |
| 2022-02-27 19:20:27 | <unknownbeing[m]> | I think I'm just gonna switch to i3 |
| 2022-02-27 19:20:46 | <Solid> | better yet: switch away from arch! :> |
| 2022-02-27 19:20:47 | <geekosaur> | (haskell doesn't use shared objects normally, that'san arch-ism) |
| 2022-02-27 19:21:14 | <unknownbeing[m]> | Shared objects? |
| 2022-02-27 19:21:35 | <geekosaur> | .so suffix |
| 2022-02-27 19:22:01 | <unknownbeing[m]> | What are they? |
| 2022-02-27 19:22:16 | <unknownbeing[m]> | I've just never heard of shared objects |
| 2022-02-27 19:23:52 | <geekosaur> | they're supposed to improve memory usage because a single shared object can share memory in all programs that use it |
| 2022-02-27 19:24:52 | <geekosaur> | but there aren't enough haskell programs running on a systemto justify it and they have to be rebuilt every time their dependencies are updated (thta's haskell specific and a long story related to optimization) |
| 2022-02-27 19:25:30 | <unknownbeing[m]> | Hmmm |
| 2022-02-27 19:25:51 | <unknownbeing[m]> | I might just have to give up on xmonad :( |
| 2022-02-27 19:27:01 | <geekosaur> | just install itnot using arch packages. we recommend stack (in particular on arch), see http://xmonad.org/INSTALL.html |
| 2022-02-27 19:27:58 | <unknownbeing[m]> | I see |
| 2022-02-27 19:28:01 | <unknownbeing[m]> | Thank you |
| 2022-02-27 19:28:40 | <geekosaur> | arch just goes out of its way to make haskell painful |
| 2022-02-27 19:30:28 | <abhixec> | Hello! I am connecting to 4k display and the fonts and everything is super small. xrandr --scale 1.25x1.25 doesn't seem to work great because then it disorients the tiling proportion. anyone know how I should increase the font in a sane way? |
| 2022-02-27 19:35:22 | <geekosaur> | use lxappearance to adjust the fonts? |

| 2022-02-27 20:19:06 | × | mc47 quits (~mc47@xmonad/TheMC47) (Remote host closed the connection) |
| 2022-02-27 21:16:02 | <abhixec> | but that would mean that when I disconnect I need to go in and reduce the font again so that it readable on my laptop :/ |
| 2022-02-27 21:16:46 | <geekosaur> | X11 sadly doesn't support per-screen font sizes |
| 2022-02-27 21:17:01 | <geekosaur> | this is one reason why everyone wants wayland |
| 2022-02-27 21:20:59 | <abhixec> | :'( |
| 2022-02-27 21:31:07 | <geekosaur> | this is also a downside of client-side fonts, since that is what specifically doesn't let you specify a screen. if you select a server side font by point size I think it can do the right thing |
| 2022-02-27 22:03:07 | <abhixec> | by server side you mean specifying it in xdefaults file? |
| 2022-02-27 22:03:50 | <geekosaur> | font specifications that look like -misc-fixed-... |
| 2022-02-27 22:04:19 | <geekosaur> | instead of Monospace-12 or Monospace;size=12;... |

| 2022-02-27 23:40:41 | <iqubic> | Alright... I'm having an issue where I can't get fullscreen applications to be fullscreen AND cover up my XMobar at the top of the screen. |
| 2022-02-27 23:42:59 | <iqubic> | It was my impression having a manageHook rule of "isFullscreen --> doFullFloat" would just do the trick, but it doesn't. It seems that XMobar remains on the screen. |
| 2022-02-27 23:44:31 | <iqubic> | I've got "layoutHook = avoidStruts $ layoutHook def" in my config to prevent XMobar from being covered up, but that seems to strict somehow. |
| 2022-02-27 23:45:56 | <liskin> | iqubic: this is a layering issue, that is completely outside of xmonad's control |
| 2022-02-27 23:46:21 | <liskin> | you're probably asking your xmonad to not lower itself, so it stays at the top of the stacking order |
| 2022-02-27 23:46:26 | <liskin> | *your xmobar |
| 2022-02-27 23:46:42 | <iqubic> | How do I ask XMobar to lower itself? |
| 2022-02-27 23:47:34 | <liskin> | stop using --dock; set lowerOnStart = True and overrideRedirect = True |
| 2022-02-27 23:48:05 | <iqubic> | My .xmobarrc file is non-existant. |
| 2022-02-27 23:49:01 | <iqubic> | I'm using spawn "xmobar' to spawn it. |
| 2022-02-27 23:49:11 | <liskin> | that's a bit weird, because lowerOnStart = True and overrideRedirect = True is the default |
| 2022-02-27 23:49:54 | <iqubic> | Weird. |
| 2022-02-27 23:50:12 | <iqubic> | I'm just testing this with YouTube in firefox, as the fullscreen application. |
| 2022-02-27 23:53:42 | <geekosaur> | all I can say is it works here, but I don't use xmobar |
| 2022-02-27 23:53:53 | <geekosaur> | F11 to toggle fullscreen |
| 2022-02-27 23:54:46 | <iqubic> | Yeah, F11 does go fullscreen, but it doesn't hide XMobar. |
| 2022-02-27 23:56:01 | <iqubic> | But it actually looks like XMobar isn't covering anything up. No part of the the browser window is covered by xmobar, even in full screen mode. |
| 2022-02-27 23:56:39 | <liskin> | uh, so how can you tell it's not hidden when it's not covering anything? |
| 2022-02-27 23:56:53 | <iqubic> | I'm not sure. |
| 2022-02-27 23:56:58 | <iqubic> | I'm confusing myself |
| 2022-02-27 23:57:16 | <iqubic> | When I make Firefox full screen, xmobar remains visible. |
| 2022-02-27 23:57:43 | <liskin> | so firefox isn't fullscreen then? |
| 2022-02-27 23:58:49 | <iqubic> | Well, I hit F11, which should make Firefox fullscreen, but it doesn't cover xmobar as it should. |
| 2022-02-27 23:59:34 | <liskin> | if xmobar is visible and isn't covering any part of firefox, then firefox isn't fullscreen |
| 2022-02-27 23:59:48 | <iqubic> | Weird |
| 2022-02-27 23:59:50 | <liskin> | which suggests you might actually be missing ewmhFullscreen |
| 2022-02-28 00:00:34 | <iqubic> | How do I get that? |
| 2022-02-28 00:01:21 | <iqubic> | I've got xmonad 0.15, directly from the arch linux repos. |
| 2022-02-28 00:01:36 | <liskin> | https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.17.0/docs/XMonad-Hooks-EwmhDesktops.html |
| 2022-02-28 00:02:15 | <liskin> | https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.16/docs/XMonad-Hooks-EwmhDesktops.html if you can't upgrade |
| 2022-02-28 00:02:22 | <liskin> | but you should |
| 2022-02-28 00:03:12 | <iqubic> | The only way I'll be able to update is whenever the new version hits the arch linux repos. |
| 2022-02-28 00:03:46 | <liskin> | isn't there xmonad-contrib-git in aur or something? |
| 2022-02-28 00:05:10 | <iqubic> | There might be. |
| 2022-02-28 00:05:52 | <iqubic> | Yeah. There is. I'm now compiling the latest version from git. |
| 2022-02-28 00:06:54 | <geekosaur> | most OSes won't update until it hits a stackage LTS so they have a stable base to work from for all haskell packages, even if they don't use stack as such |
| 2022-02-28 00:07:01 | <geekosaur> | so it'll probably be a while |
| 2022-02-28 00:08:14 | <iqubic> | Yeah. I'm just gonna pull xmonad-git and xmonad-contrib-git from the AUR. This essential just grabs the latest git master and complies that + plus other set-up stuff to make my login manager recognize this as a valid WM |
| 2022-02-28 00:11:17 | <iqubic> | I've just updated and now I'm getting a deprecation warning here. In main I have: "let defConfig = docks $ ewmhFullscreen def" |
| 2022-02-28 00:11:42 | <iqubic> | Then I have "xmonad $ defConfig {handleEventHook = fullscreenEventHook <+> handleEventHook defConfig} |
| 2022-02-28 00:11:58 | <iqubic> | fullscreenEventHook is deprecated. Can I remove that? |
| 2022-02-28 00:12:45 | <geekosaur> | that's replaced by ewmhFullscreen |
| 2022-02-28 00:12:49 | <iqubic> | Thanks. |
| 2022-02-28 00:14:04 | <iqubic> | Do I need to kill xmonad and then log back in to get these changes to stick? |
