| 2022-08-06 16:07:30 | <geekosaur> | you sure? startx usually runs the graphical session in tty7 and leaves the text session in place so you can see error messages |

| 2022-08-06 16:36:57 | <geekosaur[m]> | (resending via matrix as IRC hasn't made it here yet) are you sure? starts usually puts the graphical display on tty7 so you can check the text console for error messages |
| 2022-08-06 16:40:32 | <geekosaur[m]> | s/starts/startx/ |
| 2022-08-06 16:42:53 | <zim0369[m]> | No |
| 2022-08-06 16:43:05 | <zim0369[m]> | I start my session with startx |
| 2022-08-06 16:43:17 | <zim0369[m]> | And it starts in tty1 |
| 2022-08-06 16:44:20 | <geekosaur> | then you have no way to swee errors and probably lose all the conmtents of the text console when the session ends |
| 2022-08-06 16:44:54 | <zim0369[m]> | prolly because i had once configured my machine to be very quiet |
| 2022-08-06 16:45:02 | <zim0369[m]> | no verbose stuff |
| 2022-08-06 16:45:39 | <zim0369[m]> | my xmonad session starts just fine but after login i see no xmobar. I'm able to launch xmobar through the console |
| 2022-08-06 16:46:18 | <geekosaur> | the point was to look for any error messages that might be showing up. you are saying you have no way to get at the error messages |
| 2022-08-06 16:47:08 | <zim0369[m]> | Umm.. i'll have to spend hours trying to reverse configure all the stuff i did |
| 2022-08-06 16:47:13 | <zim0369[m]> | i have a very quiet boot |
| 2022-08-06 16:47:15 | <zim0369[m]> | ughh... |
| 2022-08-06 16:47:18 | <zim0369[m]> | is there no other way? |
| 2022-08-06 16:47:26 | <zim0369[m]> | i have another laptop |
| 2022-08-06 16:47:33 | <zim0369[m]> | do i test my config on that? |
| 2022-08-06 16:47:36 | <geekosaur> | or redirect the output of startx into a file (startx >.xsession-errors 2>&1) |
| 2022-08-06 16:48:02 | <zim0369[m]> | oh |
| 2022-08-06 16:51:35 | <zim0369[m]> | okay, now i started my session with that |

| 2022-08-06 16:55:25 | <geekosaur[m]> | Are you sure you didn't mean `/home/zim/.cabal/bin/xmobar`? |
| 2022-08-06 16:56:59 | <zim0369[m]> | changed the config to use the correct path |

| 2022-08-06 16:58:45 | <geekosaur[m]> | Not sure why it's trying to use dbus |
| 2022-08-06 16:58:54 | <zim0369[m]> | I've made use of this redirecting so many times. this should've come to my mind before. im dumb |
| 2022-08-06 16:59:13 | <geekosaur[m]> | But it looks like xmobar should have started |
| 2022-08-06 16:59:23 | <zim0369[m]> | why is matrix's reply not working... anyways |
| 2022-08-06 16:59:45 | <geekosaur[m]> | What's your config again? |
| 2022-08-06 17:00:00 | <zim0369[m]> | geekosaur[m]: yes, actually before few hours ago i had correct full path to as you asked me to put but even then it wasn't starting |

| 2022-08-06 17:03:10 | <geekosaur[m]> | You don't have `avoidStruts` around your layout so it is probably being covered up |
| 2022-08-06 17:04:20 | <zim0369[m]> | I did not understand avoidStruts documentation so i thought it wasn't necessary |

| 2022-08-06 17:14:54 | <geekosaur> | the session log is no longer helpful, as far as I can tell from that it's being started |
| 2022-08-06 17:15:32 | <zim0369[m]> | xmobar process isn't present |
| 2022-08-06 17:15:47 | <geekosaur> | at this point I think I need Solid or someone else more familiar with the xmobar side of things |
