[SOLVED]2 DWM questions

exactly what the topic says
1. How much RAM does dwm take up? maybe someone could take a screenshot with archey while idling with nothing else running?
2. How much C experience does it take to configure dwm? Iv looked at some sample configs and it doesnt look incredibly complex
Iv looked for the answer to those 2 questions but could not find them so are there any dwm users that could quickly answer them?

2. Patches will work correctly if you do like what wiki said . But multiple patches can cause problem like bharani said. And c prog is easy to read, no master needed to read and customize config.h file . And there's #archlinux channel + bbs forum for you to ask

Can't mark reply "This solved my question"

In the email I received that notified me of a reply to my question, when I click on the link for either "This solved my question" or "This helped me", it takes me to Safari, but gives me the following:

It appears you're not allowed to view what you requested. You might contact your administrator if you think this is a mistake.
If I sign in to the Discussions, and go to Your Stuff and choose the question, I see the Legend, but there are no buttons for me to mark a reply as "This solved my question" or "This helped me".
Any idea why I can't do this? I'm running Mac OS 10.8.5, and Safari 6.0.5. Could there be something in my Safari settings that is blocking this?
Thanks,

There have also been intermittent problems with the forum software lately and this might be causing this problem.
Try going to your thread again and see if the symptoms change any,

Hi,
Not sure why are you getting this kind of error (which is pointing to a URL with Jpg file) while creating a journal.
Could you please bounce your server once and try..
Please let us know if the error/warning stopping you to enter a journal in GL??
We don't think profile option is a show stopper here.... We assume that you have assigned Sets of Books, MO: Operating unit & HR USer Profile option at Responsibility level correctly....

I am trying to use the "This solved my question - 10 points" and the "This helped me - 5 points" but they are NOT doing anything. How do I award the points ?

Are you talking about the "Legend" panel at the right of the window?
Those text are just help texts explaining the reputation points. You can only award points, if you are the original poster of a question. Then you will see active buttons to award points below the answers you receive. See here for more information: https://discussions.apple.com/static/apple/tutorial/reputation.html

I checked an answer as "this solved my problem" when it actually did not, and I don't want anyone to be mislead.

I've tried many things and maybe i'm missing something very simple here.

[Solved] Dwm reconfigure after update.

The problem is simple, after update to last version of Dwm i had to build and install it from scratch. I don't want to do that for any new version of Dwm. Is there a way to avoid that process?
Cheers.

I had this issue on my other machine (this one uses scrotwm). Trying to remember what I did to resolve it.
There were no errors after makepkg -efi but the version kept reverting back to the previous one. I think it happened updating to that one, too. Anyway, I *think* what I did was to copy my config.h elsewhere, clear out the dir I used for building it, updated abs, copied the dwm-5.8.1 files in and rebuilt. Search for dwm-5.8.1 using grep to make sure you have the right files.
There may be a step missing from that though.
Exactly the same problem and the solution helps a lot. Indeed, this is the way i solved the issue. But the question is: exists any way to do automatically those steps? I know, i can make a shell script, but apart from that there is another?

[SOLVED]dwm and Diablo II?

Hi all,
Quick question--well maybe?
Decided to plunge into the world of tiling wm's and have so far decided on dwm. So far really like it and it helps out my old T21 Thinkpad. I do play some games on the laptop when I'm out of town but Diablo II in wine doesn't seem to work properly. I've searched and googled to death and haven't really found a definitive answer. It just seems to resize the screen and then freezes.
Edit: To tell the truth, it doesn't really freeze. I can still bring up another terminal or something else but the resolution is all messed up.
Last edited by bgc1954 (2008-11-19 05:50:25)

1) Yes, I run both e17 and pekwm on this laptop. It works in both other wm's.
2) Haven't tried running it from terminal yet. I'll try that and see what happens, though.
3) No changes made other than installing dwm.
Edit: well, here's what spits out when run from terminal:
[brian@archlaptop ~]$ wine 'c:\\Program Files\\Diablo II\\Diablo II.exe'
[brian@archlaptop ~]$ fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x33ebfc,0x00000000), stub!

[SOLVED] Weird question: pacman -Syu nothing to do for quite a while

Hi,
Perhaps this an odd question but I feel like for the past 2-3 weeks on two different computers "pacman -Syu" returns "x up to date" for all repos and "nothing to do" as the result. Could nothing really be upgradeable for this long? Can anyone else confirm this or has something gotten goofed? Is there a way to check actual versions with what I have to make sure things really are working properly? Even if nothing was upgradeable I can't remember the last time I saw core, extra, or community actually download without doing "pacman -Syyu". They alway say up to date and I'm thinking this just can't be correct...
What might help for me to post? I haven't changed anything in pacman.conf or pacman.d/mirrorlist...
Thanks,
John

I have solved some questions, please check if my answers are correct

Hi every Java aces,
I have solved some programming questions, please check if my answers are correct. Thanks
Here are the questions and the answers to each question
(a) Write a method called add that takes three integers as parameters and returns an
integer that is the sum of the three parameters.
(b) Write a method called max that takes three integers as parameters and returns the
largest of the three integers.
(c) Write a method called printMax that takes three integers as parameters and prints
the maximum value to the screen. The method should return nothing. The method
should print the words \The maximum value is " followed by the maximum value,
followed by a new-line character. You should try to use the max method that you
wrote earlier.
(d) Write a method called min that takes three integers as parameters and returns the
smallest of the three integers.
(f) Write a method called ticketPrice that takes one integer parameter representing
the age of a person, and returns the price of a movie ticket in dollars (as a
oating
point value). Children under 6 get in for free (0.00), people that are 18 or under
pay 8.50, senior citizens (65 or older) pay 6.50, and all other people pay 10.00.
(g) Write a method called isDivisor that takes two integers as parameters and returns
true if the rst parameter is a divisor of the second parameter or false otherwise.
We say that m is a divisor of n, or that m divides n, if there is an integer k such
that n = k m. Note that 1 divides every integer, and every integer divides i
itself .

I just got the latest one off of the repo at git.suckless.org/dwm. the page says 6.0 but my config.mk says version 6.1. I did try the 6.0 version but the patch had errors. I am a little confused. The other patches come back with errors too. I am using an unpatched version at the moment so I would think most patches should work.
What should I do?

[SOLVED] dwm: cannot open mixer

I've been setting up dwm through the last hours and I had an issue with sound playback. Firstly, I can play any sound from the console or any other wm. The problem appears when I start dwm by using xinit but loading it through gdm seems to solve the problem but still I'm not satisfied with that solution. I think that gdm do something in order to grant access to the sound card but on the other hand I still have another problem with multiple running applications that playback sound, only the first opened application can.
After starting dwm with xinit I get "amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or directory" and by running alsamixer I get "cannot open mixer: No such file or directory".
Thanks in advance
Last edited by russo (2011-06-20 04:01:15)

Well, I checked those posts.
/dev/mixer exists
I tried to load the snd-pcm-oss but nothing changed.
However I noticed that I can run alsamixer as root. I'm not sure but maybe having to run gdm as root while running xinit as user made the difference but still it doesn't make sense since I can run openbox with xinit and everything works fine. I'll keep trying
EDIT: Finally, I tried to load openbox through xinit and had the same problem. Next I tried to reboot removing gdm from the daemons and start dwm directly with the xinitrc options. Now it seems to work fine. Maybe gdm blocked the sound card once it opened.

[SOLVED]dwm bars

I have some questions about dwm configuration. First of all how can I move the dwm bar to the bottom and make a new bar at the top where I can put my conky system monitor.
Like how this guy did it with his nice plain desktop:
Last edited by zowki (2009-06-19 15:55:55)

I got conky to be rendered as a window thanks to your .conkyrc tip but I still can't get dwm to make that bottom gap.
I tried "sh = DisplayHeight(dpy, screen) - BOTTOM_BAR_HEIGHT;" and defined BOTTOM_BAR_HEIGHT to 15 in config.h but it still didnt work.
Edit:
I have been doing some more hunting. Could any of these be the right variable?
static int sx, sy, sw, sh; /* X display screen geometry x, y, width, height */
static int by, bh, blw; /* bar geometry y, height and layout symbol width */
static int wx, wy, ww, wh; /* window area geometry x, y, width, height, bar excluded */
Edit 2:
I FINALLY DID IT! It was in the updategeom() function. I did this:
wh = showbar ? info[i].height - bh - BOTTOM_BAR_HEIGHT : info[i].height;
Thank you guys for all your help!
