FS#582 - Using xkill on the statusbar send the SIGKILL signal to systray applications User who did this - Julien Danjou (jd) ---------- This is cute but unfortunately a wibox is just a X window. It's not designed like standard X application, if you click on xkill, it just ignores it. The problem of systray apps dying does not appears KDE/QT apps, only with GTK ones. It seems that xkill or xprop sends a GetProperty for WM_STATE on the wibox, but get nothing (since wiboxes does not have this property set). Then it decides to do a QueryTree on the wibox, and since the wibox is parent of the systray window, xkill/xprop dig into the tree and finally find a window (the systray application) that has some WM_STATE property, and then kills it. QT/KDE systray icon window does not have WM_STATE neither so they can't be kill. The "fix" on our side would be to set an empty WM_STATE I guess. ---------- More information can be found at the following URL: http://awesome.naquadah.org/bugs/index.php?do=details&task_id=582#comment1343 You are receiving this message because you have requested it from the Flyspray bugtracking system.
