2025-11-12 00:23:15 +0100 <geekosaur> you'll note in the MATE configuration on the wiki I give instructions to stop it from eating meta
2025-11-12 00:22:43 +0100 <geekosaur> quite possible
2025-11-12 00:18:22 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Nexilva> I restored everything from backup like .config and .local etc. and keys still don't work in 24.04. I think KDE in 24.04 eats the meta key as I see a lot of default shortcuts for it.
2025-11-11 23:51:26 +0100 <geekosaur> probably grabbed those keys for something else, as before

2025-11-11 20:31:38 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Nexilva> I rebooted into 22.04 and it switches workspaces just fine. Problem is somewhere in 24.04 KDE

2025-11-11 20:21:03 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Nexilva> meta + f1 and f2 switch monitor focus just fine
2025-11-11 20:20:38 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Nexilva> On 24.04 kubuntu, meta + 1 2 3 etc. don't switch workspaces anymore.

2025-11-11 17:24:41 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Nexilva> I got it. Thanks
2025-11-11 17:21:21 +0100 <geekosaur> have you checked the xmonad wiki? pretty sure we have instructions for integration with KDE
2025-11-11 15:35:23 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Nexilva> I'm on 24.04 now with multiple reboots and nvidia/wifi works. Now I just need to figure out how to make KDE load xmonad like it did in 22.04. I can't remember how I did that.

2025-11-11 06:28:34 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Nexilva> Whew! Everything restored and working once again. I am going to stop messing around and after 3 days, I can't find a way off of 22.04 Kubuntu, so that's where I'm staying. I learned my lesson.
2025-11-11 05:55:09 +0100 <geekosaur> minimum will be .config and .local
2025-11-11 05:52:42 +0100 <geekosaur> tbh I'd restore the whole thing; desktop environments have too many interconnected parts, and if it's a dconf setting you'd need to restore the whole db anyway
2025-11-11 05:52:01 +0100 <geekosaur> (or be screwed up by them, which might be why "didn't work out")
2025-11-11 05:51:50 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Nexilva> glady I have everything from ~ backed up on a ZFS mirror. What do I need to restore, do you think?
2025-11-11 05:51:20 +0100 <geekosaur> yeh, that's usually a good way to mess things up because switching between different versions of programs will generally screw up their config files
2025-11-11 05:50:14 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Nexilva> I think something got messed up by debian in my ~?
2025-11-11 05:49:57 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Nexilva> I tried to install debian, shared my home, it didn't work out, so I rebooted back into ubuntu and now these problems have started
2025-11-11 05:49:28 +0100 <geekosaur> that one's harder, you have to find out where that's bound in KDE and rebind or remove the binding
2025-11-11 05:48:37 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Nexilva> Now I have another problem too. winkey+p used to run dmenu_run, now it brings up KDE switch screen menu
2025-11-11 05:39:31 +0100 <geekosaur> (you probably don't want the GDK_SCALE part; that's because I have QHD monitors and gtk stuff doesn't autodetect the scaling it needs to do)
2025-11-11 05:38:24 +0100 <geekosaur> drop something like that in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/10profile
2025-11-11 05:37:51 +0100 <geekosaur> https://github.com/geekosaur/xmonad.hs/blob/hilfy-2023/10profile
2025-11-11 05:37:01 +0100 <geekosaur> ubuntu does *not* read your dotfiles to set $PATH, so its path will be /bin:/usr/bin
