2022-09-22 00:56:30 +0000 <floweynt[m]> is it possible to have 2 xmobars / monitor?
2022-09-22 01:00:13 +0000 <jao> floweynt[m], as many as you want, just have separate configurations with separate placements for them
2022-09-22 01:01:16 +0000 <jao> the only thing you cannot do is sending dbus messages to them separately, i think
2022-09-22 01:01:25 +0000 <floweynt[m]> what about like different text for each xmobar depending on the active monitor
2022-09-22 01:02:59 +0000 <jao> (this is a very old screenshot https://codeberg.org/jao/xmobar-config/src/branch/master/img/xmobar-xmonad.png)
2022-09-22 01:05:36 +0000 <jao> floweynt[m], if you mean a single process at the same place but showing different contents depending on the monitor, not out of the box; writing your xmobar using haskell (as one does with xmonad) is most probably possible
2022-09-22 01:05:57 +0000 <jao> but i think i've never used xmobar with more than one monitor :)
2022-09-22 01:07:26 +0000 <floweynt[m]> uhg, haskell is a painful language for me
2022-09-22 01:07:30 +0000 <jao> if the setup is that each monitor occupies a different area of a large virtual desktop, then there's no problem, just run an instance per monitor
2022-09-22 01:08:09 +0000 <floweynt[m]> > if the setup is that each monitor occupies a different area of a large virtual desktop
2022-09-22 01:08:09 +0000 <floweynt[m]> isn't that the default for xrandr?
2022-09-22 01:08:11 +0000 <lambdabot> <hint>:1:61: error: parse error on input ‘of’
2022-09-22 01:08:48 +0000 <jao> i don't know. if it is, problem solved: just use the corresponding "position" param
2022-09-22 01:11:00 +0000 <floweynt[m]> don't i have to do some dynamic pretty printer bs to get xmobar to display the windows properly?
2022-09-22 01:11:28 +0000 <jao> i don't think so, we use the xrandr libraries for sure
2022-09-22 01:12:01 +0000 <jao> but i've never tried, so i cannot be 100% sure
2022-09-22 01:12:25 +0000 <floweynt[m]> sorry, not the windows
2022-09-22 01:12:33 +0000 <floweynt[m]> the workspaces for each monitor
2022-09-22 01:12:57 +0000 <jao> you mean using xmonad?
2022-09-22 01:13:44 +0000 <floweynt[m]> yeah
2022-09-22 01:14:16 +0000 <jao> i bet not, xmonad is pretty bs free... but probably someone else in the channel will know better
2022-09-22 01:15:10 +0000 <floweynt[m]> It doesn't seem to work well w/ IndependentScreens tho
2022-09-22 01:16:31 +0000 <floweynt[m]> ugh. i just want a dwm-like experience with xmonad
2022-09-22 01:17:51 +0000 <Lears> I don't use xmobar, but there definitely is some related PP stuff if you use it through a pipe. IIRC it "just works" with ewmh, but don't quote me.

2022-09-22 02:20:44 +0000 <QNX> I'm assuming from .sink method that it unfloats all gimp toolbox?

2022-09-22 02:22:37 +0000 <QNX> Ahh. That was when gimp didn't ahve 'single window mode' and toolbox was floated and this would I think unfloat it. So I don't need it anymore. I thik

2022-09-22 02:24:55 +0000 <QNX> So when doing a color select, gimp opens a color window, but since I'm full screen, the color select dialog gets tiled to fullscreen

2022-09-22 02:25:32 +0000 <QNX> Most of the boxes appear fine, as floated. But some don't.
2022-09-22 02:26:55 +0000 <QNX> problem is wm_class returns the same for the color select window that is for the main window
2022-09-22 02:27:01 +0000 <QNX> Not sure how to differenciate

2022-09-22 12:14:18 +0000 <geekosaur> xmonad itself will not banish the mouse for you,m you'd need to run something like unclutter. you might also want to use the FloatKeys module to replace xmonad's mouse bindings
2022-09-22 12:16:16 +0000 <amosbird> geekosaur: Hmm, I don't use mouse at all. Do I still need to replace xmonad's mouse bindings?
2022-09-22 12:17:43 +0000 <geekosaur> you won'tbe able to do much with floats if you don't set up FloatKeys
2022-09-22 12:18:04 +0000 <geekosaur> (not that you can do much with floats anyway, they're easily our weakest point 😞 )
2022-09-22 12:19:05 +0000 <geekosaur> to be clear,m most of our floating window support is done with mod-mouse1 and mod-mouse3. FloatKeys gives you keybindings you can use instead
2022-09-22 12:19:25 +0000 <geekosaur> so you can go completely mouseless

2022-09-22 22:01:00 +0000 <floweynt[m]> <geekosaur> "XMonadPropRead reads _XMONAD_LOG..." <- ` Run XPropertyLog "_XMONAD_LOG_0"` is what i have
2022-09-22 22:01:12 +0000 <QNX> There is nothing you can phrase in any diplomatic manner
2022-09-22 22:01:20 +0000 <QNX> About why some changes were made that are breaking
2022-09-22 22:01:39 +0000 <QNX> Anyway.
2022-09-22 22:02:08 +0000 <QNX> It's time to start making own software
2022-09-22 22:03:17 +0000 <geekosaur> this is one of the reasons people run xmonad, i3, …
2022-09-22 22:03:57 +0000steve_(~steve@ool-182c2b80.dyn.optonline.net) (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)
2022-09-22 22:04:47 +0000 <QNX> Well, it's not that.
2022-09-22 22:05:03 +0000 <QNX> It's that ... I just got back from kde devel and raised some issues about genuine things
2022-09-22 22:05:13 +0000 <geekosaur> floweynt[m], I don't see anything wrong with your config and I can't see your smobar config (and I don't know xmobar well enough anyway) but things seem to be okay at least in your xmonad.hs
2022-09-22 22:05:17 +0000 <QNX> The general mentality is ... they don't.... I just...
2022-09-22 22:05:40 +0000 <QNX> I'm not one to talk about people badly, but it's just too much ... elitist toxicity in the circle
2022-09-22 22:05:51 +0000 <geekosaur> ask liskin about the gnome devs sometime
2022-09-22 22:05:55 +0000 <QNX> KDE does things that break things for Xmonad people and they don't care.
2022-09-22 22:05:57 +0000 <QNX> :(
2022-09-22 22:05:59 +0000 <QNX> That makes me sad.
2022-09-22 22:06:13 +0000 <geekosaur> (I haven't tried to work with them in a decade, they clearly have not improved)
2022-09-22 22:06:22 +0000 <QNX> They have not. Sadly.
2022-09-22 22:06:31 +0000 <QNX> Oh I need a Big Xmonad HUG!
2022-09-22 22:06:39 +0000 <floweynt[m]> geekosaur: xprop -root doesnt show _XMONAD_LOG_{N}
2022-09-22 22:07:00 +0000 <QNX> I need a fly down terminal like yakuake
2022-09-22 22:07:00 +0000 <geekosaur> I am saddened by KDE though. I used to contribute to it, and even did a Solaris port back in the KDE 2 days
2022-09-22 22:07:14 +0000 <geekosaur> we ran it in the main undergrad cluster
2022-09-22 22:07:30 +0000 <QNX> I need to be able to quickly access a terminal no matter which workspace I'm on, floated/hovered, on/of toggle with either mouse edge screen touch up top, with a delay
2022-09-22 22:07:44 +0000 <QNX> I used to too, circa 2.5.10
2022-09-22 22:07:47 +0000 <QNX> 3.x
2022-09-22 22:08:02 +0000 <QNX> I was an old debian maint and used to contribute a lot circa 20020-2006
2022-09-22 22:08:10 +0000 <QNX> 2002
2022-09-22 22:08:52 +0000 <QNX> But that's the beauty of FOSS
2022-09-22 22:09:03 +0000 <QNX> Find a community you like, can stand, like minded people, contribute, make friensd
2022-09-22 22:09:15 +0000 <QNX> Linus Trovadldes maybe crass but he's got a point
2022-09-22 22:09:22 +0000 <QNX> Find what you like and contribute there.
2022-09-22 22:09:26 +0000 <QNX> I like Xmonad
2022-09-22 22:09:42 +0000 <QNX> Even if I was an asshole sometimes, people were still nice to me here and understanding.
2022-09-22 22:09:54 +0000 <QNX> People with mental problems like mine have hard time finding a place to fit in.
2022-09-22 22:10:10 +0000 <QNX> But anyway, glad to be here.
2022-09-22 22:10:30 +0000 <QNX> Gladly I stuck with ubuntu LTS so I don't have to update plasma-framework patches too often.
2022-09-22 22:10:37 +0000 <QNX> Not something you can do with a rolling distro.
2022-09-22 22:11:23 +0000 <geekosaur> I have a terminal scratchpad. one could conceivably do that with X.H.ScreenCorners
2022-09-22 22:11:28 +0000 <QNX> I wanted to try out a few rolling distros, but my workflow/desktop is heavily KDE app oriented, dont' use kde desktop, Xmonad instad, but I use plasma panels for easy peasy app/taskman/systray
2022-09-22 22:11:37 +0000 <QNX> Hmm
2022-09-22 22:11:39 +0000 <QNX> Interesting.
2022-09-22 22:11:40 +0000 <geekosaur> I use MATE fwiw
2022-09-22 22:12:14 +0000 <geekosaur> plays pretty well once you reconfigure the menu applet to let go of the windows key
2022-09-22 22:12:28 +0000 <QNX> GTK based?
2022-09-22 22:12:37 +0000 <QNX> I have a mental problem. I hate GTK dialog design.
2022-09-22 22:12:43 +0000 <geekosaur> yes. more or less it's a supported fork of gnome 2
2022-09-22 22:12:48 +0000 <QNX> Especially the GTK2/3 file open/save dialog boxes. Horrendous
2022-09-22 22:13:05 +0000 <QNX> Who came up with such a terrible nonstandard design for especially those two
2022-09-22 22:13:15 +0000 <QNX> And you always have to open/save files, and that is too annoying for me to use
2022-09-22 22:13:30 +0000 <QNX> Gimp I have to use, and that's terrible with that file/save/open dialogs, Horrible design.
2022-09-22 22:13:36 +0000 <QNX> Just unintuitive.
2022-09-22 22:13:44 +0000 <QNX> Anyway, i'm sounding like a old grumpy man.
2022-09-22 22:15:06 +0000 <geekosaur> wait until you are one 🙂
2022-09-22 22:15:10 +0000 <QNX> 42 man.
2022-09-22 22:15:15 +0000 <QNX> Getting there!
2022-09-22 22:15:22 +0000 <geekosaur> 58
2022-09-22 22:15:28 +0000 <QNX> Whoah. Damn.
2022-09-22 22:15:29 +0000 <QNX> Sir.
2022-09-22 22:15:34 +0000 <QNX> Respect.
2022-09-22 22:15:53 +0000 <QNX> I thought you were my age, man. haha
2022-09-22 22:16:59 +0000 <QNX> XHSC seems cool.
2022-09-22 22:17:23 +0000 <QNX> But what action might I launch which would show the terminal floated on top of the already existing window in a workspace
2022-09-22 22:17:47 +0000 <QNX> Don't want to switch ws, nothing else, no app switching nothing, just float a terminal on top like this one: https://apps.kde.org/yakuake/
2022-09-22 22:18:38 +0000 <geekosaur> like I said, I use a scratchpad. https://github.com/geekosaur/xmonad.hs/blob/skkukuk/xmonad.hs#L77-L80 (keybind https://github.com/geekosaur/xmonad.hs/blob/skkukuk/xmonad.hs#L213)
2022-09-22 22:19:09 +0000 <QNX> Interesting.
2022-09-22 22:19:22 +0000 <QNX> What is this scratchpad thing?
2022-09-22 22:19:35 +0000 <QNX> https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.17.1/docs/XMonad-Util-NamedScratchpad.html
2022-09-22 22:19:37 +0000 <QNX> I see.
2022-09-22 22:19:52 +0000 <geekosaur> https://alternativeto.net/software/guake/?platform=linux
2022-09-22 22:20:14 +0000 <geekosaur> or search for "quake-like terminal linux"
2022-09-22 22:20:23 +0000 <QNX> Gotcha
2022-09-22 22:21:18 +0000 <QNX> Scratchpad seems pretty awesome
2022-09-22 22:22:29 +0000 <geekosaur> it summons (or lau7nches if needed) a window on the current workspace on command, then banishes it to NSP on repeat of that command so you can pop stuff up/down on the current workspace. I have quite a few defined, as you can see
2022-09-22 22:22:48 +0000 <geekosaur> although much of that is experimentation and in particular I may take all the crawl consoles back out
2022-09-22 22:23:11 +0000 <geekosaur> since I only really use local and cbr2
2022-09-22 22:23:54 +0000 <QNX> yeah yeah nice
2022-09-22 22:25:35 +0000 <QNX> What's this 'crawl' stuff?
2022-09-22 22:25:58 +0000 <QNX> Like web crawler on diff sites gathering data?
2022-09-22 22:25:59 +0000 <geekosaur> https://crawl.develz.org
2022-09-22 22:26:06 +0000 <geekosaur> a dungeon crawler
2022-09-22 22:26:12 +0000 <QNX> Oh nice.
