[i3] I'm new to i3 and have some questions about configuration and use
I'm kinda new to Linux in general, and now I'm learning how to use Arch Linux. I installed i3 today and it's a very fun window manager. But I'm having some problems using it. 1) When I use Mod4+a, the Parent Container is selected, and then I press it again and again and everything gets selected. How do I deselect everything and return to my previous window selection (right now I can only do that by creating a new window or changing workspace)? 2) When I run startx, two terminal windows are automatically loaded into my screen. I looked into /etc/i3/config and ~/.i3/config and there's no exec there. I can't find a way to disable this and get a clean start. Sorry if these things are easy to fix, but I couldn't find it anywhere. Thanks.

1. Mod-d (for down) 2. Strange. Do you have an ~/.xsessionrc? See man xsession for too much inf.
