    Question Re: Howto: Install and configure Pekwm

    Hi again.
    I'm having problems to fully understand the autoproperties and I wonder if someone could help me with a couple of small things:

    1.
    I use conky. And it's all of my my four workspaces but I only want it to appear on workspace 1, how can this be done?

    2.
    I have this settings for aterm:
    Code:
    Property = "^aterm,^XTerm" {
            ApplyOn = "Start New"
            FrameGeometry = "69+33+0+0"
            Border = "False"; Titlebar = "False"
            #Sticky = "True"
            Layer = "Desktop"
    }
    In my pekwm start-file I have aterm & and conky &
    I would like aterm to have a a titlebar, but just that one that startups
    first, all other aterm's should be normal: Border = "False"; Titlebar = "False"
    I would also like this startup aterm to be set as taged and prehaps as a group and with a xterm.

    Could someone help me out a bit?

    Re: Howto: Install and configure Pekwm

    PekWM seems good . Anyone knows if it is possible to do three things:

    - raise windows without clicking, when hovering with the cursor, but with a delay of a few milliseconds (just like it's possible in fluxbox and openbox)

    - some other way than a panel to have a system tray (a pipemenu, maybe)

    - some way to have a clock on the title bar? Just on the active one, that's how I think it would be nice.



    I think that the replacement of the taskbar by the title bar would be the logic move for those minimalistic WMs, but funnily enough I think that the titlebar is always underexploited. On openbox I was using it to call either both the root-menu (right click) and the menu with all the windows (middle click). So I don't need to have some empty space to call the root-menu.

    Apparently just by touching the border of the screen you achieve the same result on pekwm, that's somewhat nice too, but I'll make some adjustments to be just like I've used to have on openbox.

    anyone gotten xcompmgr to do it's job properly in pekwm?
    anything composited looks like crap with black spaces all over (gnome-do docky awn etc.)

    This bug is ages old!

    Re: Howto: Install and configure Pekwm

    Anyone that have installed 0.1.11 successfully?
    For me it installed just fine, but as I tried to log in it said that there were no 'Exec line' in the session file.

    Have tried to look around on forums and comparing to the gnome file. But to me it seems that it is PekWM that is faulty on this one.

    Re: Howto: Install and configure Pekwm

    Hi. I have a problem, my pekwm freezes from time to time, window buttons became inactive, right-click menu does not work too. It lasts about one minute and then anything works fine again. Does anybody know how to fix this bug?
