Hey, firstly, thx for the installer, you did a great job, but there is something i need to figure out.

[qbnil]

1) There is a problem with picom, i always have to configure it all over again when booting the system, i checked bspwmrc file but the path to exec file seems to be correct 2) How can i configure the weather info in my polybar? (z0mbie theme) 3) There is no action or pop up window when i click on wifi button in my polybar (is it normal and if it is, how can i configure it so that it spins up the wifi configuration window)

[qbnil]

to clarify (picom always sets alacritty to it's default settings on boot) + there is one small issue with thunar: when i open it up, i can't move it at all, even though it's not full screen

[qbnil]

• there is one more issue with the lock screen, it doesnt get activated at all when clicking on it in polybar, it makes my lenovo logo appear and it just freezes like that

[gh0stzk]

Hello. the weather, you need to specify your city or countr here is a link in the wiki how to do it https://github.com/gh0stzk/dotfiles/wiki/Weather-module

The wifi module, yes thats the normal behavior but you can add a click bahavior for example inside rice dir, open modules.ini file, search for label-connected = "%netspeed%" modify it like this label-connected = "%{A1:nm-cli:}%netspeed%%{A}" where nm-cli is the app you wanna launch to manage your connection.

About thunar, open ~/.config/bspwm/scripts/ExternalRules delete or modify from line 46 to 49, you cant move it because that rule specify thunar to open in pseudo_tiled state, you can modify to floating or tiled or full_screen or just remove that lines and will start in tiled.

about lock screen you in z0mbi3 theme? but if lock screen doesnt work, you need to give me logs about error, to try help u, because thats a system error, not referring my dotfiles.

and about picom, you change transparency and then you reboot and transparency is defautl values again? thats normal behavior, if you wanna change permanently the transparency edit ~/.config/bspwm/picom.conf and edit line 81 to 84. 100 is no transparency.

[qbnil]

i just figured the transparency issue, i just moved the config file from one place to another, it somehow worked out for me, i also found out the way about lockscreen problem, i configured betterlockscreen to pop up when clicking on lock icon in polybar

[qbnil]

thx for the thunar solution, it worked flawlessly

[qbnil]

considering the wifi module you mean which is located at: /rices/z0mbie/bar/eww.yuck ??

[qbnil]

;; Network (defpoll WIFIICON :interval "10s" scripts/wifi --icon) (defpoll NETSTAT :interval "10s" scripts/wifi --stat) there is only that config there

[qbnil]

thx for the Weather solution, should've read the wiki first lol

[qbnil]

btw, i want to configure some rules for vscode like that: code) eval "$consequences" [ "$state" ] || echo "desktop=^4 state=fullscreen center=on" ;; (but that doesnt seem to work after restarting bspwm)

[qbnil]

because that gets irritating when all the windows get opened on the same workspace lol

[qbnil]

btw, i hope you're okay answering that many questions :) , what's the command for zombie-fetch (neofetch) not the ordinary one, but the one you configured for z0mbie theme. Is there one or im just the one who wants many things at a time?

[gh0stzk]

Hello, the command is zfetch I dont know the class of vscode and opera but you can get it with the command xprop, look for WM_CLASS(STRING) = click on the opened vscode window.

For the bar in z0mbi3 rice, search for this part of code in ~/.config/bspwm/rices/z0mbi3/bar/eww.yuck

;; Wifi Widgets ;;
(defwidget wifi []
    (box        :orientation "v"            
    (button     :style "background-image: url('${WIFIICON}');"
                :class "trayicon"
                :tooltip "${NETSTAT}")))

Now add this line :onclick "nm-cli" and should look like this

;; Wifi Widgets ;;
(defwidget wifi []
    (box        :orientation "v"            
    (button     :style "background-image: url('${WIFIICON}');"
                                :onclick "nm-cli"
                :class "trayicon"
                :tooltip "${NETSTAT}")))

Change nm-cli for whatever app you wanna start

[gh0stzk]

I have no problem answering your questions.

If you want to use my dots daily it is ok, but my intention is that they are a starting point to learn something new and create or modify the themes

[qbnil]

Thx, i've been able to configure the wifi menu to appear on click now, awesome

[qbnil]

Thx for helping me out a bunch, you are really an inspiration, i've now made everything work, thx again

[qbnil]

but i really forgot to ask one more thing lol, when i run zfetch command it doesnt draw me that zombie, instead it's simple mini-arch logo, must be something with the config, should find yours

[qbnil]

i can't lol, there is another question now lol, prolly it's not really about your configs but anyway, when i try running ncmpcpp the music player ig, i get a couple of errors: Reading configuration from /home/archi/.config/ncmpcpp/config... Reading configuration from /home/archi/.ncmpcpp/config... Error while processing option "lyrics_directory": option already set (is there any way to fix that?)

[gh0stzk]

Oh yes sorry, i forgot i move that script to ascii art just write colorscript -e zfetch Just create a dir called lyrics in the ~/.config/ncmpcpp/ directory

[qbnil]

zfetch now working as it should be haha thx

[qbnil]

about the second one. I still get this error tho: Reading configuration from /home/archi/.config/ncmpcpp/config... Reading configuration from /home/archi/.ncmpcpp/config... Error while processing option "lyrics_directory": option already set

[qbnil]

probably the problem is that i have two configs for that?

[qbnil]

mpd_music_dir = ~/Music lyrics_directory = ~/.config/ncmpcpp/lyrics what's the difference between two of them? (the only one is that in Music dir i got some files but in another one it's blank lol)

[gh0stzk]

probably the problem is that i have two configs for that?

probably yes.

[gh0stzk]

mpd_music_dir = ~/Music lyrics_directory = ~/.config/ncmpcpp/lyrics what's the difference between two of them? (the only one is that in Music dir i got some files but in another one it's blank lol)

mpd music is the dir where your songs are located, that ~/Music dir must be the same in ncmpcpp cnfing file and in mpd config file.

[gh0stzk]

mpd is the music player daemon, ncmpcpp is just the music player

[qbnil]

alr, i just fixed this renaming the second folder's config

[qbnil]

but the problem is that i got no music in it and i can't quit it except just pressing super + q

[gh0stzk]

https://github.com/gh0stzk/dotfiles/wiki/Firsts-steps-after-installing#the-album-covers-in-notifications-and-widgets

After you have configured the directories as it says in the link, open ncmpcpp with shift + alt + k then press "u" to update the database and then press "2" your songs should appear and play one. The polybar module should be enabled as well.

[gh0stzk]

If there are no songs on that dir nothing will appear.

[qbnil]

alr, they all appeared, now how can i quit it back to terminal in another way except pressing the keybind super + q

[qbnil]

alr, just pressing q works lol

[qbnil]

but do i need to always do those things like updating the db and then pressing 2

[qbnil]

i quit and got in again and i had to do that all over again

[qbnil]

and i don't get any dunst notifications somehow..

[qbnil]

and how can i get rid of no song picture in eww widget, i just want to loop again through the same songs and not get back to music player and play the song

[qbnil]

in polybar it says: play something, artist and i can't play next or previous song

[qbnil]

alr, i figured everything out, sorry lol, hopefully the last question, is there a way to make switching between songs using that eww widget in polybar smoother because sometimes when i click on the next song arrow it just wont do that, i have to do it twice or even more times in a row

[qbnil]

just had to create my own playlist to get rid of updating and pressing 2 everytime haha

[gh0stzk]

Open ncmpcpp it should start on window 1 with your played songs, you dont need to press U everythime. From 1 to 8 number keys are different options. in window "2" you can add songs to play list.

In ~/.config/mpd/ mpstate file, that file saves your current play song, time etc.... in ncmpcpp press "r" key and you can activate replay option.

[gh0stzk]

alr, i figured everything out, sorry lol, hopefully the last question, is there a way to make switching between songs using that eww widget in polybar smoother because sometimes when i click on the next song arrow it just wont do that, i have to do it twice or even more times in a row

about that, is eww bug, i cant do anything

[qbnil]

alr, that seems to be it then you can close the "issue" (issues lol), if some problems arise, i'll let you know, and btw, let me know too if you figure out any ways for fixing that bug
