i3 version 4.10.2 (2015-04-16, branch "4.10.2") © 2009-2014 Michael Stapelberg and contributors
I recently switched to Arch and I'm bringing over my i3 dot files, etc. Got a problem... I can't see to get my Gnome 3.16 settings working in i3wm. I haven't had a problem with my Debian (7 and Jessie Testing) and Ubuntu (14.04 and 14.10) installs in the past. But I've installed Arch on two different machines, and on both I cannot get the gnome-settings-daemon (or at least that's what I think it is) to enable my Gnome settings. Specifically, I can't get my Gnome setting for Keyboard short delay and faster repeat enabled. I have not tried any other settings. If it matters, I am running within VMware Workstation and Fusion. My config looks like: exec --no-startup-id /usr/bin/vmware-user-suid-wrapper #exec --no-startup-id /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon #exec --no-startup-id /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=pkcs11,secrets,ssh,gpg # /usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 #exec --no-startup-id dropbox start exec --no-startup-id compton -Cb --config ~/.i3/compton.conf # -CGb So when logged in, I see: $ ps aux | grep gnome-settings gdm 897 0.0 0.3 820888 29796 tty1 Sl+ 16:24 0:00 /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon If I uncomment the gnome-settings-daemon one, it starts under my username and loads a few other gnome services: $ ps aux | grep gnome-settings gdm 897 0.0 0.3 820888 29796 tty1 Sl+ 16:24 0:00 /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon eric 1049 0.0 0.6 915224 51304 ? Sl 16:24 0:00 /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon eric 1112 0.0 0.2 283984 18924 ? Sl 16:24 0:00 /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-locate-pointer eric 1114 0.0 0.1 433304 11408 ? Sl 16:24 0:00 /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-printer Sounds good, except no keyboard settings have taken effect. Thoughts? Thanks! Eric
