@ry362:matrix.orgry362 * Hi, I am trying XMonad, and whenever I try to switch workspaces, my cursor changes to an "X" and the screen seemingly hangs, however I can open another terminal, which opens on top of the present windows. I can now use things like normal, however, the cursor remains an "X" If I float it and move it around, it will make an effect where every frame the window is in stays behind the current frame. (like that MSsolitaire thing)01:39:51
@ry362:matrix.orgry362It worked normally before, without this bug, and I don't know what I did to cause this issue. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling xmonad, but it did not work.01:41:26

@sujamma:matrix.orgmaztecan you send your xmonad.hs?01:42:38

In reply to@sujamma:matrix.org
can you send your xmonad.hs?
Okay, I copied and pasted it from a guide for Xmonad.

xmonad $ defaultConfig
     `additionalKeys`
    [ ((mod4Mask .|. shiftMask, xK_z), spawn "xscreensaver-command -lock; xset dpms force off")
    , ((controlMask, xK_Print), spawn "sleep 0.2; scrot -s")
    , ((0, xK_Print), spawn "scrot")

@[Leary]:libera.chat[Leary] ry362: It probably has nothing to do with your xmonad.hs, and everything to do with how your distro configures X11, though I'm not sure of the details there. The "hang" is just stale images being left behind on the root window. You should be able to fix it by drawing to the root, e.g. with xsetroot or by using a wallpaper. 04:08:06
@[Leary]:libera.chat[Leary] The "X" cursor should also just be config, though in that case it's weird if it's not an X from the start. 04:10:11
@[Leary]:libera.chat[Leary] I don't recall how to configure it though; ask google. 04:10:26

Yeah, it didn't have an "X" before this bug started, and it only turns into an X once I switch workspaces

@ry362:matrix.orgry362By the way, is there a way to have a .xsessionrc file that only runs when I select Xmonad in gdm?17:04:58
@geekosaur:libera.chatgeekosaurlook in /usr/share/xsessions for the session file and check what the Exec= line says; you should be able to edit it to run a custom session instead17:08:00

Okay, thank you!

Okay, so it happens when I right-click in Plasma, too, so I think it might be an issue with X itself.

* @Solid:libera.chatSolid just created ^17:44:32
@Solid:libera.chatSolid I wonder whether we'll also need all of the CI commits, in order to make that not have a stroke 17:44:51
@Solid:libera.chatSolidbut other than that we should be good to do a release on the weekend or so17:45:04
@liskin:libera.chatliskin A bit silly naming the branch the same you're gonna name the tag... 20:16:12
@liskin:libera.chatliskin I'll check the CI commits later 20:16:32
