| 2023-05-11 10:43:08 | <geekosaur> | the only one of those of any interest is the BadAtom error, but it's from xmonad not xmobar |
| 2023-05-11 10:43:23 | <geekosaur> | unless it's somehow aborting the xmobar startup sequence |

| 2023-05-11 10:51:45 | <stefan_> | It all worked for me, I've just forget to put .xmobarrc with some reasonable config. Sorry for bothering you, thank you very much for response. |
| 2023-05-11 10:51:59 | <geekosaur> | hm, it should use a default |
| 2023-05-11 10:52:15 | <geekosaur> | whether you consider that default reasonable is another question, of course |
| 2023-05-11 10:52:58 | <stefan_> | it didn't started xmobar without .xmobarrc neither with startx nor xdm |
| 2023-05-11 10:53:56 | <stefan_> | it is my local trouble i think. I started xmobar without .xmobarrc manually, and it draws the bar, but always waits with "Updating...". Probably I don't have some packages for default subset of sensors. |
| 2023-05-11 10:54:48 | <geekosaur> | no, that indicates that it has `StdinReader` configured and is waiting for xmonad to write something to it |
| 2023-05-11 10:55:09 | <geekosaur> | you probably want `XMonadPropRead` these days |
| 2023-05-11 10:56:39 | <stefan_> | you mean to list workspaces etc? |
| 2023-05-11 10:56:47 | <geekosaur> | yes |
| 2023-05-11 10:57:14 | <stefan_> | yes, will look for some further configuration tutorial |
| 2023-05-11 10:57:26 | <geekosaur> | xmobar probably has one |
| 2023-05-11 10:58:32 | <geekosaur> | actually the arch wiki entry for xmobar is pretty good: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xmobar |
| 2023-05-11 10:58:46 | stefan_ | uses arch mtw |
| 2023-05-11 10:58:52 | <stefan_> | btw* |
| 2023-05-11 10:59:13 | <geekosaur> | the arch wiki is an absolute goldmine of useful information |
| 2023-05-11 11:00:01 | <geekosaur> | I get frustrated at the way they manage their haskell packages (go read the entry for xmonad to see how to avoid getting locked out of it after an upgrade) but their documentation is just fabulous |
| 2023-05-11 11:00:18 | <stefan_> | I agree, it is awesome. Because otherwise arch wouldn't work at all :) |
| 2023-05-11 11:02:13 | <stefan_> | hm, to be true there's nothing about integration with xmonad workspaces in archwiki entry on xmobar |
| 2023-05-11 11:03:47 | <geekosaur> | that part you'll want to read on through the tutorial on: "Changing What XMonad Sends to Xmobar" |
| 2023-05-11 11:24:25 | <stefan_> | Well, now my xmobar is not rulable from xmonad.hs, it only takes properties from .xmobarrc, as I think. And xmonad doesn't sends info to xmobar |
| 2023-05-11 11:26:09 | <geekosaur> | what's in your .xmobarrc and xmonad.hs? |
| 2023-05-11 11:27:29 | <stefan_> | xmobarrc is the default config from arch wiki https://termbin.com/7lfr |
| 2023-05-11 11:28:07 | <stefan_> | xmonad.hs is a bit changed config from tutorial https://termbin.com/27yo |
| 2023-05-11 11:28:23 | <geekosaur> | okay, that one has nothing to handle xmonad config |
| 2023-05-11 11:28:54 | <geekosaur> | you want to add a `Run XMonadPropLog` to `commands`, and add `%XMonadPropLog%` somewhere in `template` |
| 2023-05-11 11:31:57 | <geekosaur> | sorry, apparently both of those are just `XMonadLog` |
| 2023-05-11 11:32:31 | <geekosaur> | (I don't use xmobar, I never remember the details of this) |
| 2023-05-11 12:20:08 | <stefan_> | Can't send data from xmonad to xmobar. I've changed template and command as it is said in documentation. But first, I don't know what parameters should I send to `Run XMonadLog`. Anyway, is is stuck with 'Updating...'. |
| 2023-05-11 12:21:04 | <stefan_> | As I see, xmobar doesn't need some special pipe routines in xmonad.hs as it can read XPROPS of main window? |
| 2023-05-11 12:21:35 | <stefan_> | logHook = xmonadPropLog =<< dynamicLogString myXmobarP |
| 2023-05-11 12:21:42 | <stefan_> | this hook doesn't work for me |
| 2023-05-11 12:22:29 | <geekosaur> | XMonadLog doesn't take parameters |
| 2023-05-11 12:23:17 | <stefan_> | well, then should work with just empty list [] |
| 2023-05-11 12:23:22 | <stefan_> | but it doesn't |
| 2023-05-11 12:27:43 | <geekosaur> | it doesn't even take the list |
| 2023-05-11 12:27:51 | <geekosaur> | just `Run XMonadLog` |
| 2023-05-11 12:29:22 | <stefan_> | Awww, yes, it didn't need empty list ) |
| 2023-05-11 12:30:14 | <stefan_> | geekosaur: Could I bind just pressing of modkey alone with no other keys? I want to have all the hotkeys like M-a, M-b, M-c, ... and just Modkey to start dmenu |
| 2023-05-11 12:30:58 | <geekosaur> | by binding it directly, yes, but it will trigger when you try to press those other hotkeys as well which is not what you want |
| 2023-05-11 12:32:22 | <geekosaur> | you would need a custom handleEventHook to catch keydown/keyup with no additional keypresses for it to work |
| 2023-05-11 12:32:33 | <geekosaur> | it's doable but not for beginners |
| 2023-05-11 12:33:00 | <stefan_> | ok, will live with win+p some time ) |
| 2023-05-11 12:33:29 | <stefan_> | need to reboot, see you soon |

| 2023-05-12 11:14:29 | <fizzie> | https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad/issues/126 has some context. And https://xmonad.github.io/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Util-Hacks.html#g:2 has a thing you can put in the XMonad config to do it, if you prefer it that way, though it wouldn't necessarily get in every process that way (if they're not descendants of the XMonad one). |
| 2023-05-12 11:16:09 | <f-a> | thanks. I appreciated the help and your explanation now, it is still a tad distressing though, I ended up with the solution with sheer luck, I would have not been able to diagnose this by myself. |
| 2023-05-12 11:18:36 | <fizzie> | FWIW, it is in the XMonad troubleshooting FAQ as well, not sure how much more _can_ be done. https://wiki.haskell.org/Xmonad/Frequently_asked_questions#Problems_with_Java_applications.2C_Applet_java_console |
| 2023-05-12 11:26:16 | <f-a> | thanks, indeed I should have read that. It was a dig to java too :P |

| 2023-05-12 11:44:26 | <vistefan> | What the hell. I have recent xmonad-contrib-0.17.1 package from Arch repo. Tried to use `remapKeysP` from EZConfig which is described in xmonad-contrib v0.17.1 documentation. But there are no such variable in package. Looked at the dates. EXConfig.hs in official xmonad-contrib repo on girhub is changed 3 months ago. PKGFILE from arch repo is changed 1 month ago. And both are of the same version. But |
| 2023-05-12 11:44:32 | <vistefan> | PKGFILE still links outdated commit, the one where EZConfig.remapKeysP didn't exist yet. What the hell. |
