[SOLVED] dwm urxvt by default

Hello,
I installed Arch with dwm and i can't figure out how to change the default terminal to urxvt so that when i use alt+shift+enter it opens urxvt instead of xterm. I edited the config.h with urxvt but it doesn't work. What did i miss?

Do you use:
makepkg -efi
to build the package from the ABS?
man makepkg wrote:
-e, --noextract
Do not extract source files or run the prepare() function (if present); use whatever source already exists in the $srcdir/ directory. This is
handy if you want to go into $srcdir/ and manually patch or tweak code, then make a package out of the result. Keep in mind that creating a
patch may be a better solution to allow others to use your PKGBUILD.
-f, --force
makepkg will not build a package if a built package already exists in the PKGDEST (set in makepkg.conf(5)) directory, which may default to the
current directory. This allows the built package to be overwritten.
-i, --install
Install or upgrade the package after a successful build using pacman(8).

i'm trying to compile dwm with pertag diff patch and bstack.c
i get an error while compiling it:

it sucks 'cos i want to read pdf on top of my 10" screen and write documents at bottom, without the problem of change to another desktop and have to move to another layout, i.e., floating for gimp
another thing: for write this post i must to write the code manually, 'cos a don't know how to copy from urxvt and paste it to firefox.. yep, that's a newbie question

Looks like this workaround isn't enough to get it to compile on the latest hg clone.

[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 + gkrellm. gkrellm in all tags + apps not over it

hi! i'm using dwm right now, and it's here to stay in my config, but i'm a convert from fluxbox, and on it, i used to run gkrellm, it was beautifull to have it showed in every desktop, so right now i think if it's posible to have gkrellm in dwm, in the exact same behavior, so it shows in every tag, and the opened apps, dont get over it, like the slit in fluxbox...
here's my config.h, i've added gkrellm to the floating apps list, but don't know how to edit it so gkrellm show in every tag

decreasing window area height would leave space at the _bottom_
ww-=200;
is probably what you meant

You need to define a rule to make it floating and tag it with all tags.
{ "gkrellm", NULL, "gkrellm", ~0, True },
Also you might patch dwm.c to leave some space on the right for the
window, e.g. in updategeom:
wh-=200;
Kind regards,

{ "gkrellm", NULL, "gkrellm", (1 << 9) - 1, True },
or you could just replace (1 << 9) - 1 with 511.

[Solved] DWM with w0ng' config

Hi everyone,
Im using dwm on archlinux, and i try to install w0ng' config. But it is not working, i cant press anykey, i try shift+alt+q, shift+alt+p, alt+1, alt+2..... my screen no change, i must switch to tty2 and recompile dwm to default.
I upload 4 images for more details. This is top-left and top-right of my screen:

fc-list | grep xb
/root/.fonts/xbmicons.pcf: xbmicons:style=Regular
/usr/share/fonts/local/xbmicons.pcf: xbmicons:style=Regular
and here is how do i do:

cp PKGBUILD /root/dwm/
cp 0* config.h bstack.c gaplessgrid.c push.c /root/dwm/src/
cd /root/dwm/

[SOLVED] [dwm] Can't start dwm

Hi!
I've recently entered the world of tiling WM and started with dwm.
Since I'm kinda insecure, and wanted to keep gnome as well, I've followed every single step in the wiki article and used the ~/.Xclients way, so I could start dwm from gdm (I've followed also the steps in the discussion page as well).
Then, when I tried to startup dwm from gdm, it doesn't start, and goes back again to gdm.
My ~/.Xclients file is the following:
setxkbmap -layout pt
#relogio
while true; do
xsetroot -name "$( date +"%F %R" )"
sleep 1m # Update time every minute
done &
# #estado da bateria
# while true; do
# batt=$(LC_ALL=C acpi -b)
# case $batt in
# *Discharging*)
# batt="${batt#* * * }"
# batt="${batt%%, *} "
# batt=""
# esac
# xsetroot -name "$batt$(date +%R)"
# sleep 60
# done &
#conky bar
conky | while read -r; do xsetroot -name "$REPLY"; done &
#executar o dwm
exec dwm
It's all things copied from the wiki page, just for testing if everything was fine...
My /usr/share/xsessions/dwm.desktop file is:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Dwm
Comment=Dynamic window manager
Exec=/usr/local/bin/dwm
Icon=dwm
Type=XSession
And I've created a /usr/share/xsessions/user.desktop file that looks like this:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=User XSession script
Comment=Runs your ~./Xsession script
Exec=/etc/X11/Xsession
Type=Application
Thanks in advance for any help, I've searched the forums and used google and couldn't find any answer to this problem :S

haxit, thanks I've managed to solve the problem!
I've installed SLiM and set up everything in .xinitrc.
The dwm.desktop doesn't match with yours because I've changed somethings and because I didn't backup the file (I know, it's super dumb and stupid) I had to paste the defaults I found in the web.
Thanks.
Fellow gdm and dwm users, an advice, put everything in .xinitrc. It's easier.

[SOLVED] DWM running with gnome difficulties - cracked leaving GNOME!

UPDATE: concept as a perceived requirement has been scrubed. No longer needing Gnome's environment ... just some gtk/gnome libraries here and there though, obviously. See last post of mine here if ya like and you're rushed a bit.
Having problems getting gnome to live with DWM though I can compile myself as i just learned how from the wiki.
OBJECTIVE: retain at least the bottom menu bar of gnome (and program access) for a while yet .... while using DWM.
Hi... having the most amazing time with Xmonad, awesome, stumpwm, dmenu etc.
At this point I've realized that Xmonad and DWM have basically the same keybinding.
For how it work WELL, as it's an originator, and keeping it simple ummm.... was it 18k or 180k? hehehe (see other posts about dwm) I'm going to go with dwm for the forseeable future. they're all great though having done the studying it's really a simple decision.... If I wanted to swap to something else later I'd have the skill to know how simple that would be... dwm does cover ALL of what I sensibly need to work quickly and SIMPLY/manageably...
DUE TO UPDATE COMMENT AT TOP - SOME OF THE NEXT COUPLE OF POST IS REDUNDANT a BIT though maybe not:
So... I'm wishing to be able to access my folders and programs through the gnome menu as a fail-safe until I figure out how to get around any gottcha before I reinstall WITHOUT gnome (just some of the libraries obviously for packages that need them)
I really need to get going immediately with DWM and having had lots of fun with Xmonad (works easily with gnome though i like the simplicity of default DWM) ...
ALL I really need is what I now have left of gnome's desktop visibility which is the bottom bar with a menu applet embeded in it...
Actually.... IF there's a way to GRAPHICALLY see folders ie. boot programs without having to find the binary though would be cool.
Gnome can do it's thing in the background.... though right now ALL I can get by adding DWM WITH metacity in the gnome sessions properties leaves me WITHOUT the bootom bar that gets me to my programs...
yep, duh.
any assistance apreciated as I can't stand working without dwm (or similar tiling wm) though I'm too new at it and generally not skilled enough at this move to get to my program's ICONS... using dmenu for all booting just isn't practical for me today.. then again who knows what the next hour will bring! hehehe
So..... ANYONE have DWM code that'll work??? .... I think I'd prefer it to be stock otherwise...
whatver happens thanks and everything's so cool.... have learned SO much....

well as i remember, my own path was something like this...
Windozes -> PCLinuxOS -> (K-X)Ubuntu -> Arch(XFCE4(desktop environment)) -> Arch(Fluxbox(no DE)) -> Arch(wmii+gnu/screen) -> Arch(dwm+gnu/screen)
not talking about GNU/screen its like not talking about breathing to me right now at the beggining (like all i pass throught in GNU/linux) i can barely understand something "as complex" to understand like screen, but using it, showed me that EVERYTHING is a matter of understanding throught direct experience
so i'll recommend to you that you start looking to gnu/screen, is so damn easy to configure/use once you understand it, but difficult when you start reading about it, like dwm is in first place
what i do for file assosiations and such is using midnight commander (cli-file manager) and i edited a menu (F2 on a dir/file) and it popups showing the list of apps that i configured to open that file extension, i configured tuxcmd in the past but i didnt used it for months now...
here's the ~/.mc/menu i did... (i use urxvt as a daemon starting "urxvtd -q -f -o &" in .xinit, you may change "urxvtc" with your terminal emulator of choice... (i hope it will be urxvt(c) and not something like gnome-terminal )

Trying to get dwm, urxvt, transparency to work nicely together

New Arch user here, great distribution.
I've been trying to set up dwm with the Monaco font (great monospace/ttf font) and transparency. As you know, dwm launches uxterm by default as a new terminal. I wanted something with transparency, so I tried urxvt and tried to get it to use "fake" transparency (I could try real transparency, but when I launch xcompmgr I get a plethora of streaming error messages, so I guess I'll have the fake stuff). My ~.Xresources file looks like so:
! URxvt*font: Monaco
URxvt*background: black
URxvt*foreground: white
URxvt*termName: rxvt
URxvt*multichar_encoding: utf-8
URxvt*transparent: true
URxvt*tintColor: white
URxvt*shading: 50
URxvt*loginShell: true
URxvt*scrollBar: false
URxvt*scrollKey: true
URxvt*saveLines: 3000
I grabbed this somewhere from the net. I've commented out the font, because its another issue and I'll address it below. After saving this, and running xrdb -load ~/.Xresources, I try launching urxvt. The colors work fine (background and foreground), but I can't seem to get the transparency working at all. Instead its just a solid color.
As for the font, I installed Monaco from the arch repos. I tried using xlsfonts to get the "name" of the font, but that showed up nothing. Can urxvt use ttf fonts?
Thanks for your help, I'll post anything else anyone needs.

This will probably help (it will probably help with your font problems as well). See what it says about using shading and tintColor at the same time.
Also, just for future reference, please use Code tags for posting file content or terminal output.

Thanks for the link. I must have skimmed over too quickly last time. I got the font working, awesome how the wiki uses the font I want as an example For the transparency however, no dice. I tried using either only shading or tint, but both of them failed. Just to be 100% certain, I don't need xcompmgr running or anything for this to work right?
Trilby wrote:I'm not sure where dwm comes into play here, but I will give you one of my own grievances: I much prefer "real" transparency because with psuedo-transparency, whenever the layout changes, there seems to be a good bit of lag between to windows changing shape and the pseudo-background being redrawn. It's ugly as hell - so I use true transparency. I'm still working, however, on a dwm patch to "hide other" windows in monocle mode, because as is, a true transparent terminal in monocle mode shows other windows below it ... also ugly as hell.
The only saving grace is that I never really use terminals in monocle mode - thats just for my web browser on occasion.
As for the problem at hand, I second Jack's point. Remove one of those and try again.
I figured I'd mention dwm seeing as they mention transparency issues out of box (ie, none). I thought maybe running dwm required me to have an extra daemon running or something... I do agree that true transparency would be much nicer, but I'm running into big issues with xcompmgr. Running from shell dumps an endless stream of "error 163: BadPicture request 149 minor 8 serial xxxxx" and running it straight from dmenu results in ugly transparency between different tags in dwm (I have a terminal open on tag 1 and firefox open on tag 2, I can see firefox through the terminal on tag 1). Admittedly, I haven't read into anything regarding xcompmgr so these could all be trivial issues.

Hey Jason. Well, a couple years back I saw your awesome screenshot of dwm and decided to switch from KDE to it. I guess recently I felt like going the whole way and running Arch. I loved getting everything up and running manually (nothing like installing an OS and being given only a simple terminal ). Thanks for the welcome.

[SOLVED] awesome & urxvt results in some screen flickering

Hi,
i've been using awesome since a few weeks and i noticed a flickering problem when starting urxvt (via mod4+enter).
urxvt starts, disappears, comes back again, disappears and so on.
starting up urxvt (time until i get a usable promt) takes about 1-2 seconds.
However, i don't know how to track the problem down. Maybe it is urxvt's (i think it is), maybe it is awesome's or even ati's fault (using 2.6.32 with open source ati driver).
when i switch between multiple windows (using mod4+n) only urxvt windows are flickering. Switching between gui-apps (ff, dolphin, …) works as expected.
maybe someone has an idea about this …

[Solve]Set ibus as default IM when use other english language in gnome

Hello everybody,
I am satisfied with Arch + Gnome3 + Ibus in English language. With English language, Ibus is already set to default system-input-methods as well as I expected.
However, today I change language from english to vietnamese, System-input-methods change to other method, not Ibus.
I looked for programs to change input method such as im-settings, im-chooser and im-switch, but it's not exist in arch package or aur.
I add "export GTK_IM_MODULE="ibus"" to file ~/.bashrc , I can use Ibus only in firefox, libreoffice. To use Ibus with other programs as gedit, gnome-terminal, I must manual change input method by right click and choose Ibus.
So, How can I set Ibus as default system IM?
By the way, I can use Ibus in all Qt applications without trouble after set in qtconfig.
Thanks for reading.

Well, I set: LOCALE="vi_VN.UTF-8" instead of LOCALE="en_US.UTF-8" by default in file "/etc/rc.conf" and it's solved.

[SOLVED] Where's the default xmobar config?

I searched all over the Wiki and the xmobar site and couldn't find it. I wanted to know if there is a default configuration file for xmobar (the one that is used if there is no ~/.xmobarrc). It has the workspaces on the left, the current window title to the right of that, and the date and time (red) + operating system (green) on the right side.
Thanks

schen wrote:Why don't you just use xmobarrc? Also, it seems it's only configurable with "command-line options" or xmobarrc.
I wanted to see if I could copy what I was already using to make a ~/.xmobarrc and add to it. It turns out that the command line options were being passed in my ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs, so I guess that makes this thread solved...

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?

ber_t wrote:A vanilla dwm compiles fine with your config.h. So I guess you're using other patches that rearrange the #include directive for config.h in dwm.c, e.g. pertag. If that's the case, you have to put the moveresize function in dwm.c and declare it before config.h get's included, just like any other function in dwm.c.
Yes I had dwm.c patched with pertag. Vanilla compiles fine. Thanks!

[Solved] DWM and extra key's.

Hello.
I'm using DWM and now I have new keyboard with extra kyes Audio Mute, Raise or Lower volume you know
I tried:
showkey
And I have my key in .Xmodmap , I typed:
/path/to/.Xmodmap
and all was ok
And typed xmodmap and my keys was in mod4 section , this is the output of xmodmap:
xmodmap: up to 4 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):
shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e)

mod5 Mode_switch (0x5d), ISO_Level3_Shift (0x71), ISO_Level3_Shift (0x7c)
Now I care to play with config.h of my DWM.
Here is part of it:
{ MODKEY, XF86AudioRaiseVolume, spawn, SHCMD("exec mpc volume -5")}
And when I tried to compile it with that config I got following errors:
In file included from dwm.c:271:

make: *** [dwm.o] Errpr 1
And building stop's :(
Is someone use extra keys with DWM.
Thanks for any help

[SOLVED] dwm Compiling Error

Hello,
I am running dwm, and I love how simple and light it is. I edited my config.h few times and compiled it and it was fine. The last time I tried, it gave me an error. I could not figure that out. I tried to use a valid config.h from the internet in case I missed my config.h up, and I tried to re-install it. Nothing worked. This is the error that I get when I run the command makepkg -efi --noconfirm:
dwm build options:

No, you were not missing "some graphical libraries that you didn't incluce in the config.h file". It looks like, as jasonwryan said, you copied functions into your config.h without checking how they work. Thus, you ended up having functions that use variables you never define in config.h (and there's alot of those!)
Next time, either stick to already working patches found at suckless.org, or give some effort and at least try to figure out what is wrong with the code you randomly copied.
