Worm - a floating, tag based window manager

Lounge

There is basic example here (waiting for you to further tweak it :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:):

https://github.com/EndeavourOS-Community-Editions/worm/blob/master/.config/polybar/config

Nope, it’s not a script but a config file that is interpreted by sxhkd.

no

any polybar configuration should work fine with worm, as long as it’s not using anything wm-specific. there is the one on the EOS configuration though.

I’m not a master in using WM’s but should I get a mouse-pointer?
I just installed it in Boxes and there is no such thing…

155

Did you install the CE or not? For some reason some session managers don’t give worm a mouse pointer (it doesn’t initialize one itself so you might need to open a terminal or something and then it works fine… very weird). With the CE though it should work fine.

156

Had to figure out what CE means… :rofl:
But, yes, the CE from the newborn iso.

This happened on Boxes, later I installed it in Vbox and got a mouse pointer, a weird one though.
(A cross instead of an arrow.)

That is strange behavior. Maybe you tried the iso before there were some fixes? I have noidea… the X cursor is the default x11 one and should not happen. I did a clean install just 30min ago on both vbox and boxes, as well as on an old machine, and they all show the regular adwaita mouse cursor.

158

I’ll try again on another rig, first in Boxes.

Again, no mouse to start with and after opening a terminal a cross appears.

Where are you getting the iso from? I have no idea what that issue could be… works perfectly fine on my end.

I just did an install in Gnome Boxes too…
i get a normal mouse cursor here…

I used the new Apollo iso, downloaded from the alpix server
