Raising Amarok

Ho everyone:

I recently installed Ubuntu, and so could now use Amarok (the Gentoo installation being messed up for me),
and all is well. I went to add a keybinding:

>          , ((m,              xK_a), runOrRaise "amarok" (title =? "Amarok"))

And it is kind of odd. It is the correct name, and it works correctly when Amarok is not running - but if Amarok
is running, it only causes a file dialogue to open up instead of the right thing. (See attached screenshots.)

Is this Amarok's fault? Any ideas how to work around it?

Try matching on the WM_CLASS (note that it is set to "amarokapp") instead.  If
this works, there might be some problem with the 'title' function.

The second patch looks good, but I don't understand the purpose of the first.
Why add so many blank comment lines?  Unless there is a good reason for that
change, please re-record and send the 'Haddock links' patch separately.

Very good advice, Spencer.  I'd also add that Amarok changes title when music
is playing, making it rather likely that this is not an issue with xmonad's
'title' function at all.  WM_CLASS should be much more robust here since it is
a violation of the ICCCM to change those properties after requesting that the
window be mapped.

At least, that's what I assume it's about. I didn't look at the patch in
detail.

Re: Gnome Do config

Late response and I guess you've ditched Do, but maybe someone will find
it useful. I got Gnome Do working with this snippet in the management hook:

  , resource =? "Do" --> doIgnore

It works fine for me. I bound it to mod+d and it pops up and the arrows
seem to work. It disappears when I focus on a different window.

Session configuration in xmonad under kdm

On Debian testing (Lenny), when I install the
xmonad package I automatically get an
"XMonad" item in the "Session type" menu
on the kdm login screen. Nice!

But how do I configure that session? It ignones
my ~/.xsession.

Thanks,
Yitz

OK, I see why. The Debian package supplies a
file /usr/share/xsessions/xmonad.desktop
containing the line:

Exec=xmonad

Instead, it should run a script that first sources
xsession file(s) and then execs xmonad.

I propose that:

o the cross-platform standard name
  for this script should be "startxmonad"
  (/usr/bin/startxmonad on Debian).
o the script should set SESSION_TYPE=xmonad so that
  xsession scripts can know that this is an xmonad session.
o the script should first source /etc/xmonad/xsession,
  if it exists, then ~/.xsession if it exists.

Debian bug submitted.

Other platforms?

Right.
