This works for me with KDE.
But when I use |wmctrl| to display info about the window manager, Qubes
is indeed found:
[user@personal ~]$ wmctrl -m
Name: Qubes
Class: N/A
PID: N/A
Window manager's "showing the desktop" mode: N/A
What I am trying to do is to gracefully close firefox, but I get the
same error:
[user@personal ~]$ wmctrl -c firefox
Cannot get client list properties.
(_NET_CLIENT_LIST or _WIN_CLIENT_LIST)
You could try using 'xdotool' instead:
xdotool search --name Firefox
See my 'halt-vm-by-window' script from 'Qubes-scripts' project for
examples. You could go through the list of matching windows, find the VM
name with 'xprop', then issue a command like "qvm-run $vmname 'pkill
firefox'" which should send a normal TERM signal to Firefox. Its best to
wait about 5 seconds before trying to shut down the VM so the browser
state has time to be written to disk.
