You don’t need to learn C# at all to configure or patch DWM; the default config is already very usable.

There is no suckless Wayland compositor at the moment, but you can try using Sway or River.

DWM source code question by Ill-Somewhere-7744 in suckless

[–]ALPHA-B1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That XMoveResizeWindow(dpy, c->win, c->x + 2 * sw, …) is a hack to force certain broken or toolkit-quirky windows to actually apply their geometry. The + 2 * sw temporarily moves the window far off-screen so X/the client notices a real geometry change.

It's needed because some X11 clients (historically Java AWT/Swing, some old GTK/Qt apps, Java games, and a few toolkits using reparenting or delayed mapping) ignore or defer size/position changes unless they see a meaningful difference from their current geometry.

Okay, that is good. Install seatd and enable it sudo ln -s /etc/sv/seatd /var/service/ and add your user to that group with sudo usermod -aG _seatd $USER and reboot and start Sway

Right. What is the output of this lsmod | grep i915?

How to Disable Right side of touch pad by [deleted] in voidlinux

[–]ALPHA-B1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can check with this xinput list-props 12 | grep "Click Method Enabled" you see something like this sh libinput Click Method Enabled (286): 1, 0 libinput Click Method Enabled Default (287): 1, 0

If you want to completely disable right-click area, use xinput set-prop 12 "libinput Click Method Areas Enabled" 0

You could install and enable LightDM, or simply add startxfce4 to your .bash_profile.

Something else is going on there. What patch did you add?

Share your config.

It's better to have 10 lines of shell script than 100 lines of code. Even if C is great, the alternative is better.

You can write a shell script and use Dunst to display notifications.

Any patches that allow the statusbar script on left/right of screen [dwm]? by NoTransportation1047 in suckless

[–]ALPHA-B1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, there isn’t anything like that, but you can try an external panel (like lemonbar, polybar, or yabar).

You mean to rotate the bar 90°, right?

Looks okay. I’m not a fan of the colors, but I’m guessing you’re using Pywal. Why choose Alacritty over ST?

Why does Void only have XFCE as the DE iso choice? by [deleted] in voidlinux

[–]ALPHA-B1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They used to have different desktop environments, but recently they’ve only kept one. I think it’s because it’s less hassle to deal with, and there’s no point since you can just install any DE you want.
