[SOLVED] Xmonad and two dzen2 bars

Solved, thanks!

Here is the relevant part of my xmonad.hs; these two bars load next to each other
-- dzen config
sBarCmd = "dzen2 -fn '-*-times-medium-r-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*' -bg '#000000' -fg '#ffffff' -h 16 -w 500 -ta l"
topBarCmd = "conky -c /home/ishikawa/.conkyrc | dzen2 -fn '-*-times-medium-r-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*' -bg '#000000' -fg '#ffffff' -h 16 -w 498 -x 500 -ta r"

[SOLVED] xmonad and dzen2 - clickable areas

Hey
I'm trying to execute a function (rather than a program), when I click an icon in dzen2, using ^ca() - but to no avail.
I do rougly this:
!#/bin/sh
test() {
echo "Yay.."
echo "^ca(test)^i(/path/to/icon/icon.xbm)click me^ca()"
It tells me test, no such command.. because it's trying to execute a binary called "test", rathern than my function inside the script. Is it even possible to execute script functions, in ^ca()?
Thanks :-)

So what exactly are you trying to have execute when you click the link anyway?
Another option that you would have is to just make a script that gets called when you click the link.
However, if you are trying to use a haskell function to say.... Oh, I don't know, change workspaces by clicking, then that would be a horse of a different color.
I'm trying to call a function that checks for mail on my gmail account - because it only updates every 10 minutes, and if I've read my mail it ontinues to say "You've got new mail.." for 10 minutes obviously - when I click the mail icon, it should call the function that checks mail so it'll update as it would normally :-)

[SOLVED] Xmonad and shell prompts

Hi
Is it possible to make this prompt/shell support pasting commands? I can only interact with it using the keyboard. Thanks

myXPConfig = defaultXPConfig

How are you pasting? Have you tried S-insert or middle click?
If it's true that the prompt does not support pasting of any sort, then your config will be irrelevant and the fix/change will almost certainly have to occur in the X.Prompt internals.
Hi
Yes, I tried both. Moving the cursor over the prompt window, it has no "edit" cursor, as in a terminal. Shift insert is the same result.
Well, OK - but would be a nice feature :-). I'll play with it.
Thanks

[SOLVED] Need help with dzen2, conky and xmonad.

Hey all. I've recently been using XMonad and have found it to be a really useful tool, especially when it comes to keeping me on task and dealing with screen real-estate. However, I've been having difficulty setting up a dzen2 status bar that displays what conky pipes into it.
Here is my xmonad.hs file :
import XMonad
import IO
import XMonad.Util.Run
import XMonad.Hooks.ManageDocks
import XMonad.Hooks.DynamicLog
import XMonad.Layout.NoBorders
import XMonad.Util.EZConfig
main = do
bar <- spawn myConkyBar
xmonad $ defaultConfig
borderWidth = 2
, terminal = "urxvt"
, normalBorderColor = "#343434"
, focusedBorderColor = "cyan"
, workspaces = ["www","lp","letter","else"]
, manageHook = manageDocks <+> manageHook defaultConfig
, layoutHook = avoidStruts $ layoutHook defaultConfig
} `additionalKeys`
[ ((0, xK_F12), spawn "urxvt")
, ((mod4Mask.|. 0, xK_w), spawn "firefox")
, ((mod4Mask .|. shiftMask, xK_w), spawn "scrot -s")
, ((0, xK_Print), spawn "scrot -d 2")
myConkyBar = "conky -c .conkyrc | dzen2 -fn 'Clean' -bg #343434 -x 0 -y 768"
And the relevant .conkyrc file:
out_to_console yes
text_buffer_size 512
mpd_host localhost
mpd_port 6600
update_interval 1.0
cpu_avg_samples 2
net_avg_samples 2

^fg(cyan)^i(/home/greg/.icons/mpd.xbm) ^fg(#E0EEEE)$mpd_smart ^fg(#343434)| ^fg(cyan)^i(/home/greg/.icons/cpu.xbm) ^fg(#FF69B4)${cpu cpu1}% ^fg(cyan)^i(/home/greg/.icons/cpu.xbm) ^fg(#FF69B4)${cpu cpu2}% ^fg(#343434)| ^fg(cyan)^i(/home/greg/.icons/mem.xbm) ^fg()$mem ^fg(#343434)| ^fg(cyan)^i(/home/greg/.icons/down.xbm) ^fg(#FF69B4)${downspeed wlan0} ^fg(cyan)^i(/home/greg/.icons/up.xbm) ^fg(#FF69B4)${upspeed wlan0} ^fg(#343434)| ^fg(red)${battery_percent BAT0}% ^fg(#343434)| ^fg(red)$acpitemp C ^fg(#343434)| ^fg(#CD5555)$kernel ^fg(#343434)| ^fg(cyan)${time %m-%d-%y %l:%M%p}
The main problem I'm having is that Xmonad will make the space for dzen, but conky will write to the root window, and not dzen. So the long string of text is written on the root window without any formatting, and dzen is (usually) just a black bar. I'm not the best with Haskell, but I am im
proving, so any help would be appreciated.
Also, I've noticed that dzen2 only updates when switching workspaces. Was I supposed to define an update interval somewhere?

i think you have to use the logHook,
this is part of my configuration, although i'm not using Xmonad anymore (haven't found the time to really configure it)
-- XMonad:
main = do
xmobar <- spawnPipe myStatusBar
dynHooksRef <- initDynamicHooks
xmonad $ myUrgencyHook $ defaultConfig
{ terminal = myTerminal
, focusFollowsMouse = myFocusFollowsMouse
, borderWidth = myBorderWidth
, modMask = myModMask
--, numlockMask = myNumlockMask
, workspaces = myWorkspaces
, normalBorderColor = myNormalBorderColor
, focusedBorderColor = myFocusedBorderColor
, layoutHook = myLayout
, manageHook = myManageHook <+> manageDocks <+> dynamicMasterHook dynHooksRef
, handleEventHook = myEventHook
, logHook = dynamicLogWithPP $ myXmobarPP xmobar
, startupHook = myStartupHook
is using Xmobar, but the config from where i took this was using dzen, maybe you can use that:

ps: sorry for the awful english.

Why do I have two title bars - one with the title of the page I'm looking at and another with the new orange drop down menu? Plus I can't get FF4 to save my tabs, even when I go to about:config, why is that?

I downloaded FF4, thinking that it would merely update from my previous installation, but all my tabs were gone. FF looks really weird - here is a link to a picture of it: http://tinypic.com/r/2mwdus4/7 - I have two title bars, my bookmarks toolbar is missing and the tabs are on the bottom. If I go to view => toolbars and click one of them, suddenly the second title bar (with the orange menu) disappers and my bookmarks toolbar comes back (even if I don't click on it in "view"). I can't get the browser to remember my tabs between sessions even though I set it to remember them in my settings. I even changed the browser.showQuitWarning to true in about:config, but it didn't work. What is going on?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

Yet another dzen2 bar, icon and clickable tags for DWM

I just switched to dwm and it's really awsome so I customized it a bit: A script to display dzen2 on top of dwm status bar which show:
tags
icons
and these tags are really clickable,
and even highlight the active tags.
It's quite simple though and lots of people would do better works but I really like it and wanna share it here.
Here is some screenshots:

Usage:
Download script from here:
https://github.com/linktohack/dztags-gen
Make a directory dwm resouces eg: ~/.dwm
Download XBM ICON PACK from here:
http://dzen.geekmode.org/wiki/wiki.cgi/ … nIconPacks
and extract it to a directory inside the above directory, eg: ~/.dwm/xbm8x8/
Customize the script if needed (Tags name, icon prefix, color...)
Run setup command, eg:
dztags-gen --setup ~/.dwm
|_ no trailling slash
And finally run dztags script to show dzen2 bar, eg:
~/.dwm/dztags &
[link@Link-Arch ~]$ ./dztags-gen/dztags-gen --help
dztags-gen
Script to generate dztags and dztagsrsc
dztags: Infinite loop script show dzen2-svn from dztagsrc
Usage:
Dayly use: (through dztags)
dztags-gen number /path/to/dztagsrc
OR
First time:
dztags-gen --setup /path/to/dztags/dir
|_ no trailling slash
After setup, just run /path/to/dztags/dir/dztags &
I will appriciate any feedback here.
Thanks you all!

Thanks @jasonwryan, I just don't know where to post it

Install of Firebug causes: Two title bars, inability to open the addons tab, and inability to use the Feedback feature, etc.

After further research, I feel this should be categorized as a plugin issue...
Firebug 1.7X A10 causes two Title bars (the standard windows bar, and a second just inside with the new orange Firefox tab...both with minimize/maximize/close buttons), plus other odd behavior listed below:
Any saved tabs from before the install/enable are gone.
Choosing Addons from the menu does nothing. After opening a new empty tab the Addons manager does load.
Choosing Feedback->Makes me xxxx, does nothing.
Hitting reload button does nothing
URL bar (page address) stays the same between tabs (though the loaded page changes)
Firebug addon works fine.
After getting to the Addon Manager (this took a bit of work to do), and disabling Firebug, all problems disappeared. My previous tab history also returned.
This seems to be unique to WinXP. I have installed this Firebug version with Win7 successfully.

The two titlebars is a known bug - http://code.google.com/p/fbug/issues/detail?id=4012

[SOLVED] Trouble installing Xmonad and Xmonad-contrib

I am new to Arch Linux. After using awesome for a month I decided to shift to xmonad.I installed xmonad and xmonad-contrib from official arch repositories by using
pacman -S xmonad xmonad-contrib
and then installed GHC. I was able to start session using
exec xmonad
in my ~/.xsession file. I copied the default xmonad.hs template to my home.
cp /usr/share/xmonad-0.11/man/xmonad.hs ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs
. However while recompiling I am getting this error -

Any Idea why pacman is unable to resolve the dependency. Are they availiable in AUR?
PS: I have just updated by installation and I am not using AUR right now.

@Raynman
My pacman.conf was really in a very bad shape at the time of installation of Xmonad. I think I must be careless to notice and removed dependency check.
When I compiled my xmonad.hs I found errors related to GHC. I was too surprised, however installed it further. Now since GHC was installed later, it missed some modules which were previously installed.
I tried reinstalling xmonad, xmonad-contrib before but there was no use. However recursively removing and installing, as suggested by you, seems to have fixed have problem. I am now getting following modules in GHC.

Xmonad and Xmobar: avoidStruts no longer exposes Xmobar

I've been using Xmonad with the same config for months now. I reinstalled Arch recently, and ever since then avoidStruts no longer keeps Xmobar from being hidden behind windows.

Drag JTabbedPane out of the main Frame and set scroll bars for the tabs

hi ,
Iam working on a Swing application . In it i have Six Tabs added to a single JTabbedPane. all the tabs are different class files . is it possible to drag any of the tabs out of the frame.
how to add scroll bars for the tabs individually. i have tried adding JScrollPane to the main frame and add the JTabbedPane to the Scrollpane . the scroll bar was not visible and i have tried adding
all the six tabs to the individual JScrollPanes and add the six scrollpanes to the TabbedPane .
only the scroll arrows are visible , when i minimised or resized the application the scrollbars were not appearing .
could any one help me to solve the above two problems.

just trying.....
public void mouseDragged(MouseMotionEvent e){
// this event should be activated only when the Drag goes out of scope of the parent JFrame which i dont know how
Component c=JTab.getComponentAt(JTab.getSelectedIndex());
JFrameobj.getContentPane().add(c,"Center");
}

[SOLVED] Xmonad: trasparency doesn't work with compton intel

Dear All,
I am having a strange issue with Xmonad and I am not sure whether it is a problem of my Arch or Xmonad configuration. I decided to ask on Arch forum first, as my other computer running Arch has exactly the same Xmonad setup and it works fine. I would appreciate assistance from some Xmonad or Arch proficient users on this.
Basically, I have this piece of code in my xmonad.hs:
myLogHook :: Handle -> X ()
, logHook = myLogHook dzenLeftBar >> fadeInactiveLogHook 0.8
On the other computer this makes all the unfocused windowses slightly transparent. I find this feature very useful as it helps me focus on the window I am working with.
For some reason this doesn't work on my laptop. My laptop is using xf86-video-intel since the lspci gave me
%lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (primary) (rev 03)
Also I am invoking compton-git from AUR but I have also tried with xcompmgr in my xinitrc and it gave exactly the same result - no transparency whatsoever.
I looked through my log file, but couldn't find anything relevant (please let me know if you can think of anything). How do I proceed with this issue? Do I try different composite managers? Do I try different drivers? Is there anyhting in X setup that I should include? Please let me know if you have any ideas.

I am very sorry. I've just discovered that neither compton nor xcompmgr were installed. It's not only solved, it should be marked as [NOT RAISED]. I was migrating my configuration and overlooked some erm... details.

I have one blackberry id and two blackberry's but can only receive e-mails on one device!

Hi all,
I have a problem! I have one blackberry id and two blackberry. I have given my old blackberry to my wife.
I have just setup my new phone but whilst setting up my e-mails on my new phone we have noticed that the e-mails have been transferred to my new phone but have stopped working on my old phone.
The odd thing is my wife had a previous blackberry and we were able to both get the company e-mails on each phone.
The message that appears when e-mails have been transferred to the new phone is there is another device registered to this blackberry id and only one device can receive e-mail.
How can I unregistered my old phone from the blackberry id and re-register it under my wife's details and hopefully receive the e-mails on both phones?
Please help as its vital for the business.
Cheers Nick

Hi woodbe and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
The BlackBerry ID is only designed to work on one device at a time. Your wife can sign up for a new BlackBerry ID by going to www.blackberry.com/blackberryid. Also, to receive email on her device, she will have to have a BlackBerry data plan configured with your wireless network provider as well.
To change the BlackBerry ID on her device, you can back it up using the BlackBerry Desktop Software, then perform a security wipe from Options>Security. Upon the reboot, sign in with the new BlackBerry ID, then you can restore the data using the BlackBerry Desktop Software again.
Thanks.

Two status bar apps, giving contradictory information

After a clean remove (with the removal tool provided by Adobe) and installing the Creative Cloud manager I was able to install my 3 most used Adobe apps...
I was very surprised this morning to see that I now have two status bar apps (the old one and the new one) both giving me information about updates. Funny detail: The old app tells me I have updates for my apps. The new one tells me I don't have any apps installed...
Very weird.. I don't see the point of two toolbar apps... I presume it's a huge bug or something. Ideas are welcome.
To clarify: I do have Photoshop CC, Illustrator CC and Indesign CC installed...
UPDATE: After loggin out and in again the new Application Manager now shows my app correctly but it still says they are up to date while the old one insist I have updates... I still don't get the advantage of two App Managers.

wimmees, This is actually normal. You see two toolbars, one for the update workflow and the other for the install workflow. In other words, the updater will appear when you update your application from Help > Updates option. Rest you have Creative Cloud app wherein you can check the installed apps and can install the new apps as well.

Try changing graphic processor and back. http://codykrieger.com/gfxCardStatus
If no resolve I would take it to an Apple Retail Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) for evaluation, or call your nearest Apple Contact Center. Visit the Genius Bar at the Apple Retail Store, make a reservation.

(SOLVED) Conky and battery status

How come this will not work on my system:
${color red}$alignc Battery Information
${color lightgrey} Currently: $battery
${color lightgrey}$stippled_hr
I have tried a dozen scripts for battery status and nothing works. Does anyone have a sure fire way to get some status from my battery?
I am using a netbook, pretty standard stuff. I don't know why it won't work. I tried other commands and one returned "U" for unknown battery status and what not. How can I find out what is going on?
edit:
Battery: ${battery_percent BAT0}% ${alignr}${battery_bar 8,70 BAT0}
This displays 0% and an empty bar.
I went ahead into /proc/acpi/battery and found BAT1 and no BAT0, so I changed the script and I get a percent now...
This may be solved, but I am going to try the other functions to see if I can get the output I wanted in the first place.
Why does Conky hate batteries?

"$battery" does not work because it assumes as default BAT0, which you don't have so it will have to be "$battery BAT1". See "man conky" for more info....
