Hi and thanks again, No it didn’t change anything, I can open up anything else on a different screen/tag and they stay there just not vmplayer, this is the only OS with awesome that I have experienced this. This is Gentoo, I have used it on Arch, Ubuntu as primary and with other desktops and never had this problem
thanks again --jerry awful.rules.rules = { -- All clients will match this rule. { rule = { }, -- properties = { border_width = beautiful.border_width, -- border_color = beautiful.border_normal, -- maximized_vertical = false, -- maximized_horizontal = false, -- focus = true, -- keys = clientkeys, -- buttons = clientbuttons } }, properties = { border_width = beautiful.border_width, maximized_vertical = false, size_hints_honor = false, maximized_horizontal = false, focus = true, keys = clientkeys, buttons = clientbuttons } }, { rule = { class = "Kruler" }, properties = { floating = true } }, { rule = { class = "Remmina" }, properties = { floating = true } }, { rule = { class = "Gimp-2.6" }, properties = { floating = true, ontop = false } }, { rule = { class = "Gimp" }, properties = { floating = true } }, { rule = { class = "xfce4-appfinder" }, properties = { floating = true } }, { rule = { class = "Xfce4-appfinder" }, properties = { floating = true } }, { rule = { class = "Kcalc" }, properties = { floating = true } }, { rule = { class = "CinePaint" }, properties = { floating = true } }, { rule = { class = "toolbox" }, properties = { floating = true } }, { rule = { class = "Shutter" }, properties = { floating = true } }, { rule = { class = "MPlayer" },except={ class="Vmplayer"}, properties = { tag = tags[2][1] } }, { rule = { class = "mplayer" },except={ class="vmplayer" }, properties = { tag = tags[2][1] } }, { rule = { class = "feh" }, properties = { tag = tags[1][1] } }, { rule = { class = "Feh" }, properties = { tag = tags[1][1] } }, { rule = { class = "vdpau" }, properties = { tag = tags[1][1] } }, { rule = { class = "Conky" }, properties = { tag = tags[2][1], floating = true, sticky = true, ontop = false, focusable = false, size_hints = {"program_position", "program_size"} } }, } - Gerald Klein DBA contac...@geraldklein.com www.geraldklein.com geraldklein.wordpress.com j...@zognet.com 708-599-0352 Arch/Gentoo Awesome, Ranger & Vim the coding triple threat.
