2021-06-05 00:05:15 +0200 <liskin> mc47: if you ever see xmobar not getting killed, try this: https://github.com/liskin/xmonad-contrib/commit/80918a1488a3323cb54e1853c0030eec347c16d6
2021-06-05 00:05:41 +0200 <liskin> I don't really know why it happens, but it used to happen here like once a week or something :-/

2021-06-05 00:16:13 +0200 <mc47> liskin that's awesome \o/
2021-06-05 00:16:21 +0200 <mc47> It has been a pretty good week tbh, kudos
2021-06-05 00:17:13 +0200 <mc47> I never had the xmobar problem though, it's pretty odd that you have it
2021-06-05 00:17:43 +0200 <liskin> it is indeed
2021-06-05 00:18:03 +0200 <liskin> more so that I didn't have it for like 5 years
2021-06-05 00:18:14 +0200 <liskin> or I don't know how long I had those dynamic bars
2021-06-05 00:18:29 +0200 <liskin> and then suddenly one week it started happening
2021-06-05 00:24:03 +0200 <mc47> at least it's cool that you can hide the patch inside X.H.StatusBar
2021-06-05 00:25:12 +0200 <mc47> and I have to agree with davve, why didn't a 1.x version ever see the light?
2021-06-05 00:25:18 +0200 <mc47> is there even a versioning policy?

2021-06-05 00:29:08 +0200 <liskin> xmonad governance in general is quite chaotic, so no, there's absolutely no versioning policy

2021-06-05 00:30:27 +0200 <liskin> I wonder why no one ever complained that the X11 library doesn't follow PVP
2021-06-05 00:30:39 +0200 <mc47> yeah, it's not like it's a pressing matter

2021-06-05 00:38:27 +0200 <geekosaur> I think there's like only one other consumer of X11
2021-06-05 00:42:43 +0200 <geekosaur> enh, packdeps/reverse claims there's a few more that aren't xmonad/xmobar-related
2021-06-05 01:01:13 +0200 <liskin> quite a few
2021-06-05 01:12:12 +0200 <geekosaur> many of the packages it brings up are things like X11-xft which then only have a few deps. and half the others are dead anyway (who uses bluetile?)

2021-06-05 10:33:52 +0200 <Industrial[m]> Hi. How do I increase the workspaces from 9 to 10? (with 0 added) ?
2021-06-05 10:34:31 +0200 <Industrial[m]> I want to try `XMonad.Actions.DynamicWorkspaces` for when I need ad-hoc workspaces but I want to show 10 by default :)

2021-06-05 10:37:59 +0200 <Industrial[m]> oh, nevermind. It didn't show because I had nothing on it.
2021-06-05 10:38:21 +0200 <Solid> :)
2021-06-05 10:39:02 +0200 <Solid> If you want to show all workspaces all the time there's a ppHiddenNoWindows (I believe)

2021-06-05 18:25:19 +0200 <jg> do yall just stick to vim, or are yall emacs users
2021-06-05 18:27:41 +0200 <geekosaur> either one depending on circumstances
2021-06-05 18:35:49 +0200 <jg> yea I like vim for just a text edditor, but have been messing with emacs in daemon mode and its nearly as fast
2021-06-05 18:36:10 +0200 <jg> the buffer is pretty sick too
2021-06-05 18:44:16 +0200 <jg> geekosaur, do you think xmonad will always stick on x or if things eventually start shifting to wayland, would there be a transition?
2021-06-05 18:46:00 +0200 <geekosaur> there have been a few attempts at an xmonadalike on waylannd, they all fizzled
2021-06-05 18:46:19 +0200 <geekosaur> xmonad itself can't even reasonably be retargeted to xcb, much less wayland
2021-06-05 18:53:08 +0200 <jg> thanks :) i was curious, is that due to how integrated it currently is with X
2021-06-05 18:54:43 +0200samhh(~samhh@90.252.97.14)
2021-06-05 18:55:24 +0200 <geekosaur> xmonad is a very thin layer over xlib, and changing that would essentially break the entire ecosystem
2021-06-05 18:56:11 +0200 <jg> could it work with xwayland?
2021-06-05 18:56:38 +0200 <jg> i thought that essentually emulates x, but i could be remembering it wrong
2021-06-05 18:58:30 +0200 <geekosaur> it does but not enough for window managers
2021-06-05 18:58:40 +0200 <geekosaur> wayland window managers have to plug into the compositor
2021-06-05 19:04:35 +0200 <jg> not sure if its emacs, but using doom emacs, it does not like a period in the XSelection.hs within the import Codec.Binary.UTF8.String, the period between Binary and UTF, I'm assuming this is nbd and maybe just emacs being weird?
2021-06-05 19:05:56 +0200 <jg> it however only flags this within the import XMonad part of xmonad.hs
2021-06-05 19:09:20 +0200 <jg> fixed by clearing errors in buffer and resaving, disreguard

2021-06-05 19:30:06 +0200 <liskin> Trying to get xmonad working with xwayland might be a fun exercise, but it's a dead end. Could be a way to get us a few more years of of X though.

2021-06-05 19:32:03 +0200 <liskin> Xwayland is supposed to support having a Wayland compositor, X window manager and only X clients. I don't think any other project does it as it's clearly not a way forward, but I just might make sense for us. Xwayland will definitely be maintained a lot longer than Xorg server.

2021-06-05 21:13:04 +0200 <pl> liskin: XWayland definitely doesn't work in any way that would support such operation
2021-06-05 21:34:10 +0200 <liskin> pl: you sure? https://wayland.freedesktop.org/docs/html/ch05.html talks about "rootful mode"
2021-06-05 21:34:49 +0200 <liskin> I have absolutely no idea if that actually works, I just know that these docs talk about it
2021-06-05 21:35:35 +0200 <pl> I have never seen it working, and it seems to essentially open a complete new big window that doesn't interact with anything else (think a bit like typical VNC)
2021-06-05 21:39:59 +0200 <liskin> yeah that's why I said it's a dead end, it's not meant to support wayland clients
2021-06-05 21:40:31 +0200 <liskin> the only point of even trying to do this is because Xwayland may get a release from the master branch whereas Xorg server is stuck in 1.20.x maintenance releases
2021-06-05 21:40:52 +0200 <liskin> it'd still be an X desktop
2021-06-05 21:41:29 +0200 <liskin> just not an X server with a wm and an optional compositor, but a mandatory non-restartable compositor with Xwayland and xmonad as a WM
2021-06-05 21:41:42 +0200 <liskin> no support for wayland clients at all
2021-06-05 21:57:25 +0200 <liskin> but if anyone's ever attempted this and knows that it doesn't work, we shouldn't waste time on it
2021-06-05 21:57:53 +0200 <liskin> I feel it might be the kind of thing that people wouldn't even try as it's just silly but it might work nevertheless :-)
2021-06-05 22:03:48 +0200 <geekosaur> I don't see much point in it tbh especially if Xwayland doesn't have single window mode or it doesn't work right

2021-06-05 22:21:13 +0200 <liskin> better compared to what?
2021-06-05 22:21:27 +0200 <jg> whatever picom was in the arch repo
2021-06-05 22:21:48 +0200 <jg> its got the dual_kawase blur which is pretty sick and experimental backends is significantly smoother

2021-06-05 22:22:08 +0200 <mc47> I remember reading that some forks are better than the "official" one
2021-06-05 22:22:48 +0200liskinis running 7.3 which is from before it was renamed to picom and it's like 5× faster than anything newer I ever tried :-/
2021-06-05 22:23:01 +0200 <liskin> but then I'm not using any blur or shadows or any sort of eye candy
2021-06-05 22:23:35 +0200 <jg> I like the blurr, but mainly its nice for the animations when openning windows, it gets rid of that little glitch where you see the wallpaper flash
2021-06-05 22:24:26 +0200 <jg> it's lowkey necessary for nvidia as well if you play games, because forecomposition pipeline hurts latency noticibly for me
2021-06-05 22:25:05 +0200 <liskin> well there's unredir-if-possible for games …
2021-06-05 22:25:37 +0200 <jg> yea! thats what i use with picom
2021-06-05 22:25:46 +0200 <jg> I meant if you force composition pipeline in nvidia-settings
2021-06-05 22:25:53 +0200 <jg> picom is not necessary, however that adds input lag
2021-06-05 22:26:11 +0200 <jg> it basically forces vsync on the driver system wide
2021-06-05 22:26:15 +0200 <liskin> I never go into nvidia-settings :-)
