Placement of web notifications on the screen

behavior and come with a good solution for their rc.lua? If not, developers of awesome: would you be open to a patch exposing map notify events via the Lua API so that users may handle this scenario? Thanks, Rob -- To unsubscribe, send mail to awesome-unsubscr...@naquadah.org.

Re: toggle wifi with fn+F11

i dont know much about lua right now but... it would probably be optimal to implement this outside awesome as lilydjwg suggested but if you really want to do this in your rc.lua you are going to have to change some settings in your sudoers file to allow your user to use the needed command(s) (see h

Re: Num Lock

That's a feature, not a bug. The point is that num lock is another modifier key, like Mod4/Windows key. So when it's on, it's essentially being held down as far as awesome's concerned. You could copy all the key bindings you have at the moment and include numlock in their modifier table, then it'l

Re: Change cursor theme

Xcursor.theme worked fine for me, however I believe awesome hasn't got support for something about cursors. Something about xcb - I just skimmed over what I was reading at the time. So when your mouse is over a wibox, the default X cursor will be shown. But firefox and the majority of apps should a

Re: Prevent clients from stealing focus

I don't have this problem, perhaps it's because I have firefox on a separate tag. I can't help you with this, but perhaps you could try Download Statusbar - http://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/26 It'll stop a download window showing up, which I find is great for tiling WMs.

Re: Prevent clients from stealing focus

Naughty Notification Font

When I use naughty.notify({ title = "No subliminal", text= "messages here"}), the title font is not the same as the rest of my wiboxs. I've had a look through configuration files and I can't find where it's set, is there an addition to my theme that I should have? -- Rob

Re: Client handling

You could have a global variable, like *classname *that you set when spawning a client. Then in the startup hook function, if *classname *isn't nil, do something special. Then set *classname* to nil, so it's not handled again. 2009/9/7 Alessandro Massignan > Hi all, > > i'm wondering how could i

Use xprop (Pipe it into grep if you want) instead of xwininfo, it'll give you the class name, which is what awesome uses. You can use -class to set xterm's class. 2009/9/4 Alessandro Massignan > Hi folks, > > i've set "mocp" as true in floatapps, but when spawned running lua > code (and from >

It's because your browser is maximized from another WM, if I understand it. I had the same problem - I'd be in XFCE and close swiftweasel while it was maximized. When I reopened swiftweasel in Awesome, it wouldn't let me tile it. I had to go back into XFCE, unmaximize swiftweasel, and then return
