@Farkinid

You didn't mention what WM you're on. I assume ScrotWM?

FYI, you need to be using at least 0.9.32 to be able to initiate Autorun functions (see man page of the  latest version)

I'm afraid the version in the Debian repos is a few versions older (stability = geezer-old apps), and no maintainer seems to want to add the newer versions to Unstable or Experimental.

THe only way is to sync with CVS or compile from source. If you do intend to take that path, then it's best you quit X and totally purge scrotwm first (remember, purge, not just a simple remove... and remember to backup your ~/.scrotwm.conf first), before compiling the source version (get 0.9.33). Reason is because apt, as you might realize by now) puts executables in /usr/bin while make-install puts it in /usr/local/bin, so it's best not to confuse your symlinks. After you do that, just cp the new included /etc/scrotwm.conf to ~/.scrotwm.conf and make the necessary changes. Do not paste your old config, as that will break some of the functionality and possibly cause scrot to crash. Just use it as reference while editing the new config.

If you just want to use the current version, then the only way is to open FF in workspace 4 when you first start Scrotwm. That way, it'll open there again until you quit Scrotwm.

Did I misunderstand your question?

Yeah I'm using ScrotWM. I read a long time ago that in the scrotwm.conf, its possible to put the following :-

So when I press mod+f, firefox opens in anohter workspace. Not in the workspace im at.

Guys, I can't remember (and for some reason my google-fu has failed me today) but how do i configure an application to load in a specific workspace.

Eg. Alt + f starts firefox but i want it to start in workspace number 4.

I did this when I 1st started this adventure but I forgot how now.

@Zai
What fonts render incorrectly? What about terminus? and are you using the full iso codes?
Show me a screenshot?

....and scrotwm 0.9.32 and later can open apps in set workspaces, fyi ... see the man page

@zai
Iso code is something like this :

-*-terminus-medium-r-normal-*-12-120-72-72-c-60-iso8859-1

Basically, you open Xfontsel and get font iso codes. Download xfont and restart x

It's probably a SLIM problem if the xsession works fine.
I can't check now ... I'm typing on my phone in a boring cafe drinking lousy coffee

Will check again for you tomorrow

Oh mai thx 

Hating awesome

If i install it , imma say bye bye to my minimal archey 

Well, to be fair, Awesome is still pretty minimal by most people's standards. Bloat is usually defined by stuff you don't need or use. In that sense, I'd go as far as saying that even Subtle is considered "heavy" if one doesn't actually do any work on Ruby.

Basically, if you really wanna be a bauhausian-zen-minimalist-elitist-douche, it's only C that you'll need. Anything else is useless.

^Haha!! I know where you saw that. El Mariachi's using my .Xdefaults, btw

You think that's a weird name? Try Herbstluftwm

How do you even pronounce that?!

P.S
Zai, can you do me a favor?
Quote el mariachi and tell him this;
"The person you got the term colorscheme from says he made a simple vim colorscheme upon your request. It's up in the place you asked for it. He apologizes for the delay coz he doesn't check there very often."

necro bumping this thread, got a question to ask,

my screenshot

i can't get my conky output to be aligned to the right, the screenshot it's centerly aligned i guess. been going through the man page but nothing works

here's my conkyrc if it helps



edit: 2nd prob, it seems that the conky output is not really updated every sec, is it just me or something is wrong?
