Description Patrice FERLET 2011-11-27 02:32:52 UTC
Description of problem:
While demnu is drawn, typing keys have to display corresponding commands

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.1.1-1.fc16

How reproducible:
Simply try to open demnu (I'm on Xmonad => Super+P)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Xmonad session
2. Try Mod+P (mod = alt by default I guess)
3.
  
Actual results:
A simple bar... no completion

Expected results:
Have completion, as in Fedora 13,14,15...

Additional info:
Trying to lauch demnu_run on console is the expected result. So, it could be nice to change xmonad config to lauch dmenu_run on Mod+P... Or something that make all stuff working ;)

Indeed, this an xmonad bug which still calls "dmenu_path | dmenu" in its default config instead of "dmenu_run" (which has been around for quite some time now).

Call dmenu_run

This patch should fix it.  I don't know anything about xmonad, though.

Comment 3 Jens Petersen 2011-12-02 08:20:55 UTC
Thanks for reporting.

This is actually fixed in xmonad-0.10.
We should build that soon and push it to f16 also.
