[dwm] [dwm+ow...@suckless.org: Messages from dwm@suckless.org to you have been bouncing]
hi, I still get sporadically (about once a week) messages of this kind. our sysadmin tells me that he can't see any mails rejected by our server. I now want to check _which_ messages exactly have bounced (if at all). question: how can I identify the mail in the mail archive from the message number given in the bounce message? there seems to be no way (except counting myself...) to deduce the incremental message index. so which message is no. 7600? thanks, joerg ---BeginMessage--- Hi, this is the mlmmj program managing the mailinglist dwm@suckless.org Some messages to you could not be delivered. If you're seeing this message it means things are back to normal, and it's merely for your information. Here is the list of the bounced messages: 7600 ---End Message---
Re: [dwm] Using dwm as a nested manager?

Please note I used this a long time ago in the 2.x releases so I'm not familiar with the codebase anymore. You could use Xnest(1) in order to run dwm in a nested sense. However what do you miss in dwm that you don't like to manage all windows? Hi, Sorry for the very late response. In the last flew days I have gone back to dwm and I see now we have monocle, which is exactly what I needed. I don't need an external window manager anymore to handle the pesky firefox windows. I'm a convert (again) Kind regards, --Anselm

Re: [dwm] .xinitrc error?
2009/3/5 Christoph Siegenthaler c...@gmx.ch: I haven't changed my dwm config.h since 4.9 and was using it happily for months. I finally decided to try out 5.4.1 and I'm almost done. The only problem is that I can't get the status bar to display what's piped into dwm. It was working before and displayed a lot of fancy stuff. I stripped it down to the bare minimum now but it still displays dwm-5.4.1 instead of what I want it to: $ cat .xinitrc #!/bin/sh ### # DWM # ### timeout=0.2 while true do echo Test sleep $timeout done | dwm | eval `cat ~/.fehbg` What do I miss here? I'm sure it's something obvious (far somebody else but me)... See the README file ;) Kind regards, --Anselm

Re: [dwm] xgamma notify
urxvt seems to ignore xgamma. So although it's a great idea, it isn't much help if you only have some terminals open.

Re: [dwm] xgamma notify
I use xterm and it is affected by xgamma, the grey letters become darker for a while. Sounds strange that urxvt isnt :? Alan Busby wrote: urxvt seems to ignore xgamma.

Re: [dwm] xgamma notify
xgamma just changes the gamma, which may not be noticeable on things that are predominantly black and white. Here are a few suggestions that will set actual brightness: xbacklight =[some-value] xvattr -a XV_BRIGHTNESS -v [some-value] These may not work on all systems, but will probably work on most laptops. See man pages for further information on these commands.

It has the nice advantage that if I'm not looking at the screen that instant, it'll be around when I come back to it. And also the screen doesn't explode.
