I did a minimal test here. I moved my sys/inotify.h out of the way and recompiled wmaker (so the 'configure' script thought that it was a pre-inotify system). Things continue to work with the old polling method, in particular I now see wmaker again in powertop's list with 2.5 wakeups: 1,1% ( 2,5) wmaker : hrtimer_start_range_ns (hrtimer_wakeup) So now I think I will update the description of wmaker-crm in repo.or.cz, to reflect that it should work in other OSes too. Thanks again, Tamas. Well done! -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [email protected].
