I guess this came about when I was upgrading dmenu but even after remerging (recompiling with Gentoo's portage) both wmii and dmenu the problem persists. Any suggestions as to what may be wrong, or even how to fix it?
I think this is because dmenu has been changed. Before there existed a "-b" argument flag that'd tell dmenu to place itself on the bottom of the screen. Now there are "-x", "-y", and "-w" flags that will handle the placement and size of dmenu.
It's a pity that the "-b" flag was removed, because now you need to calculate the units yourself in order to place it on the bottom of the screen.
For a quickfix, you could play around with "-y" flag to get your dmenu to be placed on the bottom, and then change your wmiirc accordingly. E.g.:
$ echo | dmenu -y 1035 Best regards /Pontus
