Hi! im new to wmii (just start using it yesterday) but it seems that my ~/.wmii-3.5/wmiirc file is not being read... i quit and reload x to reload my config, but with no change... my ~/.wmii-3.5/wmiirc file (copied from /etc/wmii-3.5/wmiirc file and changed a bit): #!/bin/sh -f # Configure wmii # Configuration Variables MODKEY=Mod1 UP=k DOWN=j LEFT=h RIGHT=l # Colors tuples: "<text> <background> <border>" ### Set 1 Colors :: (Gloom Theme) ### #WMII_FOCUSCOLORS=('#ffffff' '#282828' '#cccccc') #WMII_BACKGROUND='#333333' #WMII_NORMCOLORS=('#e0e0e0' '#0a0a0a' '#606060') ### End Set 1 Colors ### ### Set 2 Colors ### WMII_NORMCOLORS='#888888 #000000 #000000' WMII_FOCUSCOLORS='#ffffff #222222 #333333' WMII_BACKGROUND='#000000' ### End Set 2 Colors ### WMII_FONT='-*-arial-medium-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*' ### Default Font ### #-*-fixed-medium-r-*-*-13-*-*-*-*-*-*-* set -- $(echo $WMII_NORMCOLORS $WMII_FOCUSCOLORS) WMII_MENU="dmenu -b -fn '$WMII_FONT' -nf '$1' -nb '$2' -sf '$4' -sb '$5'" WMII_9MENU="wmii9menu -font '$WMII_FONT' -nf '$1' -nb '$2' -sf '$4' -sb '$5' -br '$6'" WMII_TERM="urxvt -sh 50" # Column Rules wmiir write /colrules <<! /.*/ -> 58+42 ! # Tagging Rules wmiir write /tagrules <<! /XMMS.*/ -> ~ /MPlayer.*/ -> ~ /.*/ -> sel /.*/ -> 1 ! # Status Bar Info status() { echo -n $(uptime | awk '{ print "Uptime: "$3" days "$1" "} '|' PCM: $(get_volume) '|' $(date +'%R %d/%m/%Y')' } # Event processing # Processed later by `wmiiloop' and evaled. # Duplicate the eval line and replace 'eval' with 'echo' for details. eventstuff() { cat <<'!' # Events Event Start case "$1" in wmiirc) exit; esac Event Key fn=$(echo "$@" | sed 's/[^a-zA-Z_0-9]/_/g') Key_$fn "$@" Event CreateTag echo "$WMII_NORMCOLORS" "$@" | wmiir create "/lbar/$@" Event DestroyTag wmiir remove "/lbar/$@" Event FocusTag wmiir xwrite "/lbar/$@" "$WMII_FOCUSCOLORS" "$@" Event UnfocusTag wmiir xwrite "/lbar/$@" "$WMII_NORMCOLORS" "$@" Event UrgentTag shift wmiir xwrite "/lbar/$@" "*$@" Event NotUrgentTag shift wmiir xwrite "/lbar/$@" "$@" Event LeftBarClick shift wmiir xwrite /ctl view "$@" # Actions Action quit wmiir xwrite /ctl quit Action exec wmiir xwrite /ctl exec "$@" Action rehash proglist $PATH >$progsfile Action status set +xv if wmiir remove /rbar/status 2>/dev/null; then sleep 2 fi echo "$WMII_NORMCOLORS" | wmiir create /rbar/status while status | wmiir write /rbar/status; do sleep 1 done Event ClientMouseDown client=$1; button=$2 case "$button" in 3) do=$(eval $WMII_9MENU -initial "${menulast:-SomeRandomName}" Nop Delete Fullscreen) case "$do" in Delete) wmiir xwrite /client/$client/ctl kill;; Fullscreen) wmiir xwrite /client/$client/ctl Fullscreen on;; esac menulast=${do:-"$menulast"} esac # Key Bindings Key $MODKEY-Control-t case $(wmiir read /keys | wc -l | tr -d ' \t\n') in 0|1) echo -n $Keys | tr ' ' '\012' | wmiir write /keys wmiir xwrite /ctl grabmod $MODKEY;; *) wmiir xwrite /keys $MODKEY-Control-t wmiir xwrite /ctl grabmod Mod3;; esac Key $MODKEY-space wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl select toggle Key $MODKEY-d wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl colmode sel default Key $MODKEY-s wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl colmode sel stack Key $MODKEY-m wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl colmode sel max Key $MODKEY-a Action $(actionlist | eval $WMII_MENU) & Key $MODKEY-p sh -c "$(eval $WMII_MENU <$progsfile)" & Key $MODKEY-t wmiir xwrite /ctl "view $(tagsmenu)" & Key $MODKEY-Return eval $WMII_TERM & Key $MODKEY-Shift-space wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl send sel toggle Key $MODKEY-f wmiir xwrite /client/sel/ctl Fullscreen toggle Key $MODKEY-Shift-c wmiir xwrite /client/sel/ctl kill Key $MODKEY-Shift-t wmiir xwrite "/client/$(wmiir read /client/sel/ctl)/tags" "$(tagsmenu)" & Key $MODKEY-$LEFT wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl select left Key $MODKEY-$RIGHT wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl select right Key $MODKEY-$DOWN wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl select down Key $MODKEY-$UP wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl select up Key $MODKEY-Shift-$LEFT wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl send sel left Key $MODKEY-Shift-$RIGHT wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl send sel right Key $MODKEY-Shift-$DOWN wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl send sel down Key $MODKEY-Shift-$UP wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl send sel up Key $MODKEY-Mouse4 sh -c "$(amixer -q set PCM 20+)" & Key $MODKEY-Mouse5 sh -c "$(amixer -q set PCM 20-)" & ! for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9; do cat <<!

[arch-general] Problems with keyboardinput
by Johannes Held 15 Mar '08

15 Mar '08

Hello, I have a second Arch running in a virtual machine. Recently I noticed that I can't write some characters like @, {, ~ .. and the like. It seem's that AltGr is somewhat broken. I know that I had this problem with my normal PC. But the solution is 30kilometers away and buried somewhere unter ~/tmp.. (hopefully) As far as I know - it was something simple with kbdfont or something like that... -- Gruß, Johannes Täglich http://blog.hehejo.de und du fühlst dich gut. http://cryptocd.eduforge.org/online_version

[arch-general] initscripts-splash
by dongiovanni＠archlinux.de 14 Mar '08

14 Mar '08

Hallo, Currently I'm maintaining splashy and fbsplash. Some time ago there was a discussion of integration of the splash hooks in the initscripts in [core]. Is there something planed? It would reduce problems for some less experienced users. If this isn't possible, can someone update initscripts-splash when the new initscripts go to [core]? I only could upload a third initscripts package, that I can maintain myself, but that would only make a mess... I don't know if dtw is still active. The last time a dev updated the initscripts-splash package. Since I'm not a TU I depend on someone who updates it in order to support the new udev in a correct way. Thanks for now, dongiovanni

[arch-general] Apple keyboard broken in [testing]
by bardo 14 Mar '08

14 Mar '08

Hi all. I'm experiencing a strange problem with my Apple aluminium keyboard: a few days ago the F1-F4 keys stopped working, and the ` and < keys were swapped (meaning: pressing one of the keys gives the output of the other). If I changed my layout the same two keys were swapped, even though they now mapped other carachters, so it should be a scancode problem. This happens in both X and in console, the keyboard was working fine before and it works fine if plugged to any other machine. Hard to say which package broke the whole thing, since it happened after a 600MB upgrade, but I suspect the usual udev... Trying to fix the problem I plugged another usb keyboard to the same port, but everything was ok, so I began playing with showkey and xev. Result: the Apple keyboard returns different scancodes and keycodes from the other one. The same kayboard is broken on the two Arch machines I own, which both run testing, and I was able to find a user on IRC with the very same keyboard working outside of testing. Downgrading xorg-server did not work (as I expected, since the console is broken, too) and I'm starting to run out of ideas. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Corrado

[arch-general] Dangerous dbus update for testing
by Jan de Groot 12 Mar '08

12 Mar '08

There's a dangerous dbus update coming up for the testing repository. The package itself isn't so special, as it works fine, but the fact that every dbus-daemon process on your system will crash during the upgrade can lead to unpleasant surprises. Testing users: please be aware of this and run your upcoming upgrades from a plain text console instead of from X. One of the unpleasant surprises is that xorg-server in testing goes down with dbus while it's upgrading, leading to loss of important work or an interrupted package upgrade process.

I know its not part of core, let alone base, but its a very important package in extra. Current xorg-server in testing comes with HAL enabled. Reference: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/9563 Is that gonna be the default now? Users probably havent reported back on this, but many had problems with it. On the other hand others didnt. Its already a month in testing, but no decision has been made up yet. Should this be reviewed later? What do devs think about this change? Greg
