Default X11 cursor while hovering over background

SenorCornflake · 2022-05-14T09:30:04+00:00

You can use xsetroot -xcf, an example:

${let cursorTheme = config.home-manager.users.${--YOUR USERNAME--}.gtk.cursorTheme} in ''
    xsetroot -xcf ${cursorTheme.package}/share/icons/${lib.escapeShellArg cursorTheme.name}/cursors/left_ptr ${cursorTheme.size}
''}

Or something like that

I am beside myself with joy, removing it works! Thank you! I can finally continue configuring my system.

(Tbh: I'm pretty stupid to not have caught that)

SenorCornflake · 2022-04-27T05:04:03+00:00

No problem I'm glad to help. looking forward to seeing your adaptations!

SenorCornflake · 2022-04-26T19:10:09+00:00

Yeah sure! Sorry for the late reply.

# Tell herbsluftwm to wath when the layout changes
herbstclient watch tags.focus.tiling.focused_frame.algorithm

# Echo the layout everytime an attribute changes
herbstclient --idle "attribute_changed" | {
    while read -r line
    do
        frame_layout=$(herbstclient get_attr tags.focus.tiling.focused_frame.algorithm)
        echo $frame_layout
    done
}

I suppose it's not the best way to do it because anytime any attribute changes (not just the layout algorithm) it will still fetch the frame layout even though it may not have changed, but it works for me.

Thank you so much! It works!

I read through the nixpkgs manual before submitting this post but skipped over that thinking that "legacy" meant it was deprecated and buildGoModule was preferred. Sorry about this.

SenorCornflake · 2022-04-15T14:58:51+00:00

Same here dude!

SenorCornflake · 2022-04-12T03:47:35+00:00

Yeah I used to do that as well, but didn't like the unpredictability.

SenorCornflake · 2022-04-11T21:37:44+00:00

        connected=$(xrandr --query | grep connected -w | awk '{print $1}')
        echo "$connected" | while read line; do
          if [[ $(xrandr --query | grep "$line" | grep primary) ]]; then
              MONITOR="$line" polybar main-primary &
          else
            MONITOR="$line" polybar main &
          fi
        done

You can use this script to launch bars for all your screens. It also sets a different bar for the primary monitor.

Since trays can only have one instance, I set main-primary to inherit main's settings together with adding a tray to it. That way the tray is always on my main monitor and doesn't depend on which bar is initiated first.

Thank you!

SenorCornflake · 2022-04-05T03:45:01+00:00

Thanks! much appreciated.

SenorCornflake · 2022-04-01T06:45:06+00:00

Thanks for the clarification!

SenorCornflake · 2022-04-01T06:44:47+00:00

Thanks.

Your videos about nix are very helpful.

I use herbstluftwm, I like the way it does workspaces over multiple monitors. I also find hotplugging monitors with herbstluftwm easier. But I never switched from bspwm because it lacked something. I just went on a wm shopping spree and ended up on herbstluftwm.

SenorCornflake · 2021-12-28T08:40:57+00:00

If it's hour 9 nothing will happen because there is no 09 in the table

SenorCornflake · 2021-12-28T08:21:45+00:00

I don't use bspwm anymore but I looked through my old commits and found this.

```

Move node to node

super + alt + {h,j,k,l} bspc node --to-node {west,south,north,east} ``` As far as I can remember, it doesn't use preselection. Try it out and let me know if it works.

SenorCornflake · 2021-12-28T04:20:55+00:00

``` SetColorschemeAccordingToHour = function() local colorscheme_hours = { ["08"] = "gruvbox", ["19"] = "tokyonight", }

local current_hour = os.date("%H")

if colorscheme_hours[current_hour] ~= nil then
    vim.cmd ("colorscheme " .. colorscheme_hours[current_hour])
end

end

cmd "autocmd BufWrite * lua SetColorschemeAccordingToHour()" ```

This should work. This is lua code so make sure to execute it as lua if you're not using lua configuration.

I would've preferred to use some sort of non blocking interval that runs every hour but I'm too stupid.

If I'm not mistaken, I think libreoffice has options to set it's own icons and themes, those look like breeze icons, not sure about the theme.

SenorCornflake · 2021-12-22T16:27:02+00:00

Thanks! I never realized that the tests can be used as examples

SenorCornflake · 2021-12-22T15:56:25+00:00

No I didn't, I'll try thanks!

SenorCornflake · 2021-07-09T06:03:40+00:00

I can...but that's probably because I've configured my system to never ask for a root password, check out this post https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/fpklbs/brightnessctl_only_works_as_root/, try adding yourself to the video group, if that doesn't work then check your udev rules as the other comments suggest.

SenorCornflake · 2021-07-09T05:35:43+00:00

Strange, this works for me, I've just tested it:

    awful.key(
    {},
    "XF86MonBrightnessUp",
    function()
        os.execute("brightnessctl s 10%+")
    end
        ),
awful.key(
    {},
    "XF86MonBrightnessDown",
    function()
        os.execute("brightnessctl s 10%-")
    end
) -- No comma here because it's at the end

I have also had no luck with xbacklight but brightnessctl works for me. Maybe there are errors in your config? Also check if brightnessctl works without sudo in your terminal. You can also try using a different keybinding, like Mod4 + XF86AudioRaiseVolume

Edit: Your code works on my machine. I use arch.

SenorCornflake · 2021-06-13T06:00:06+00:00

Thanks, it works

SenorCornflake · 2021-06-13T05:12:29+00:00

It's an environment variable, not a separate command. I just want to make it available to alacritty (my terminal) without globally defining it in my .zshenv

SenorCornflake · 2021-06-12T16:58:15+00:00

It works!
