Re: [i3] Mouse capture problem i3 and OBS

[Michael Stapelberg]

Have you tried reproducing this problem with any other window manager that
offers a tabbed mode?

I use wicd instead of NetworkManager and I'm very happy with it. It
would connect as soon as I login in text mode, so by the time I3 is up,
the connection is already there.

Re: [i3] managing wifi with i3

[Jeff Bauer]

I use wicd with i3, but it always fails when I attempt to connect to a network
that requires authentication (virtually all of them, these days).  There's some
error in the Python code that I have tracked down yet, so I log into new
networks with nm-applet the first time, then with wicd thereafter.

Re: [i3] managing wifi with i3

[Ingo Bürk]

The window manager is neither responsible nor involved in network
management at all, so I'm afraid you're looking in the wrong direction here.

Re: [i3] managing wifi with i3

[Jeff Abrahamson]

I have the following in my ~/.xsessionrc, and it works correctly:

if [ "X$DESKTOP_SESSION" = Xi3 ]; then
nm-applet &
# and other stuff
fi
