I can't comment without looking at your config.h and how the key binding is set up. Also which version of dwm are you using and have you applied any patches? > > Note: I also get dwm: missing fontset: ISO8859-1 when I start dwm, but > I'm assuming this is irrelevant. If you are using UTF8 and see all ususal latin1 glyphs with your configured font, then you can ignore this. If you only get white boxes for normal characters of latin1, I would suspect there is something dodgy with this tiny core distro to fix. Cheers, Anselm
