Hello, This happen because os.execute is a blocking command. Awesome stops until the command return. When the GTK window is created, it ask the window manager to manage it. As Awesome is busy waiting for the command to finish, everything freeze. It is usually called a "deadlock" because both process are waiting for the other. Please use awful.util.spawn instead of os.execute. rc.lua should never call blocking functions. On Oct 2, 2015 3:46 PM, "Namikaze Minato" <lloydsen...@gmail.com> wrote:
