It runs peferctly fine after i killed it at the beginning, until then i wasnt able to "click" anything or use commands. So i pkill Awesome, the Slimloginwindow pops back up, i log in and it runs perfectly as it should. Theres no error or something, but i do think it has to do with the keygrabber.lua but i dont now exactly why. I'm using Slim as my login manager and i just exec awesome in the xinit. I'm using archlinux at the moment, hope that helps! > > kindest regards, > Jonas > > P.s. could it be a problem with the xserver? Therefore it would be a topic for the archlinux mailinglist ... Hope that isnt the case and im failing right now =D
I don't think so. I have the same issue both back when I was using Ubuntu, and now that I'm using Arch. I log in and I can usually launch one or two apps. Then the mod4 key no longer has any effect. I've been lazily trying to use xev to see if the whole key event is gone or if awesome is just not responding. I keep forgetting, so I'm not sure. In any case it usually happens the first time I startx. I have to manually switch to tty1 and ctrl-c my xsession and then startx again. Then I have no problems. -Wayne
