Open arcolinuxz opened 2 years ago
Thanks for trying out this wm!
It should work out of the box (no extra packages needed). Here's a few things I can come up with:
~/.config/wmderland/config
?set $Mod = $Alt
instead of set $Mod = $Cmd
The result is actually quite beautiful but none of the keybindings work
so we are kind of stuck in our development
I have been trying different things.
Removed the $Cmd to the actual key Mod4 or super key or windows key.
We can install sxhkd and its config then the keybindings will work but none of the keybindings in the config file like quit an application or change the tag or move apps to a tag...
What linux distrobution are you using to develop? I will install that one and test there.
@arcolinuxz That's so strange... I'm out of ideas.
I developed it on gentoo and arch linux. These two distributions should work. A few days ago I installed them on a PC at my laboratory which runs Arch linux, and the keybindings did work.
Edit: I'm currently running arch linux (I don't use gentoo anymore)
Also installed it on VMWare (host: macOS, guest: Arch linux) and the keybindings work.
do you mind sending a package list?
Sure!

Hi there,
@arcolinuxz is there any update regarding this issue?
I tried again this morning. I set my keyboard to uk instead of be. I had not tried that yet but that was not the solution.
The code we are using is here : https://github.com/arcolinux/arcolinux-wmderland/tree/master/etc/skel/.config/wmderland
The version of wmderland we are using is this one https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wmderland-git/
It seems that I can kill a window just fine if I launch
wmderlandc kill
in a terminal
but
if I try to do the same via the config with
bindsym $Mod+q kill
or
binsym $Mode+q wmderlandc kill
it will not kill the window instead it will type the letter if a terminal is open for example.
I have stopped the development of this desktop until we have figured this out.
Tried to overcome my keybinding issue today. I was wondering if wmderland provides any support regarding logging. Can we see somewhere what is wrong - errors that we can check
@arcolinuxz I'm so glad that it's resolved!
Yes, wmderland provides logging support. To use it, we need a "DEBUG" build:
build.sh
, please change build_type=MINSIZEREL
to build_type=DEBUG
./build.sh -i
to build and reinstall wmderlandAt this point, we can restart wmderland and then it should start writing logs into /tmp. This was the method I personally use during development.
I think the config parser should log some error messages when it encounters errors.
Just in case something isn't logged, we probably need to inspect src/Config.cc
and add some extra lines to log the information we're interested in.
Here's a simple example to log something in wmderland:
WM_LOG(INFO, "keycode: " << keycode);
Seems keycode was not accepted.
The other log did not show me the errors.
Capital K same result
It needed to be KeyCode - capital C
some error in log file
I can install it but did not reveal anything yet in the log file in /tmp
Current content
I am still trying to find a solution to my problem.
I think you were under the impression it was solved...
It is not... I am out of ideas.
I have created a few of my missing keybindings
killing an application opening thunar reloading wmderland
I have bypassed the config from wmderland and went to sxhkd to launch apps or kill apps
It feels somehow not normal.
Next challenge is moving to workspaces or moving an app to a workspace I can not understand why these keybinding are giving me so much work
I tried to explain all of this in a hidden video
@erikdubois
Thank you for the detailed video!
So currently $Mod+Return
is working, but $Mod+Shift+Return
isn't?
I see you're running it within virtualbox, can you please export the VM as an .ova file and upload it? If I can download and run it locally, maybe I can try to figure out what's going on.
Thanks!
So currently $Mod+Return is working, but $Mod+Shift+Return isn't?
Both are working. Via sxhkd. Not via config of wmderland.
Now I need to be able to move to workspaces or move applications to workspaces
I might have someone who can help me... I might get his code.
If there is no solution I will export an .ova file.
I'm having the same issue, I'm on Artix (Arch without systemd) and using the wmderland-git package from the AUR. I use a qwerty keyboard, this is the output from xev when I hit Super-q:
KeyPress event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0xc00001,

XLookupString gives 0 bytes:

Setting $Mod to Mod1 instead of Mod4 doesn't change anything, none of the shortcuts work.
I will make a seperate post about the keybindings that are still open.
Os: ArcoLinux (based on Arch Linux) package in use : https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wmderland-git 1.0.4-2 Rebuild it also from the github. Issue : none of the keyboard shortcuts are working Is there a package we need to install to make the wmderland keybindings work?
