bspwm: 0.9.7-1

This is my first time using bspwm, so I could just be being an idiot, please tell me if so!

Not building on OpenBSD - xcb

I get this error about xcb when I try to build it:

Memory leak in libpluse? (pulseaudio-alsa)

Currently debug build output the following error on exit.

==214722==ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks

Direct leak of 4 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:
    #0 0x7f31fecdfcd8 in __interceptor_calloc /build/gcc/src/gcc/libsanitizer/asan/asan_malloc_linux.cc:153

SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: 4 byte(s) leaked in 1 allocation(s).

I have no idea why the memory leak.

Doubts with modules

Hello there,

At first, good work, this bar looks awesome, pretty fast, multi-diplay, really nice.

I just have a few requests or tips to "how to" add my needs.

What I want to show in this bar:

• Bluetooth icon (just like polybar, if it's connected, show blue color, if not, grey color)
• Network Manager icon (just show what kind of network is connected atm, then click to run networkmanager_drun script)
• VPN Icon (same, if it's connected, show vpn name, if not, show "disconnected" or only cross-icon)
• Clickable module (I want to add a rofi-dmenu in "arch-icon" and power button on the right, showing logout, poweroff, etc.)

More or less, there are my requests for new features. Unfortunatelly I don't know C coding, well, i'm just not really experienced with it, so I can't help with this part. If it's something that can be "integrated" with shell scripts, I can collaborate.

Thank you very much.

I'll keep waiting to hear from you.

Kind regards.

Segfault with nvidia graphic card

Starting bspwmbar result in error segmentation fault (core dumped) if monitor is attached to Nvidia graphic card.
On the same system everything works fine if I use intel integrated graphic card.

I tried building bspwmbar with default config and with most modules disabled (I left active only system tray on the right and default modules on the left).

I'm using proprietary Nvidia driver on Arch.

OpenBSD support

Tracked in #12.

Some icons missing + "feature" facilitation request

Great piece of software!
I installed the font package but some icons are still missing, for example master volume.
imgur
There were others but I removed them.
Also... Idk if it's useful for others but I need a way to set the poll time globally of for every single module, there should be a line in config.h to allow inexpert users to customize a little more the bar.

Failed font fallback when debug build

failed font fallback with error the following when debug build:

XftFontOpenPattern(): failed seeking fallback font

The linked AUR package does not exist

I'm talking about this: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols/
It's located in the readme file

Keyboard layout module request

An XKeyboard layout module would be quite handy for those people, who constantly switch between multiple layouts (including me).

AUR install fails

Not sure if this is your responsibility. v0.4.1.tar.gz fails validity check.

-> Found config.h
==> Validating source files with sha256sums...
v0.4.1.tar.gz ... FAILED

Brightness Module

Hi, good job on the bar. It looks good and pretty fast.
I've noticed there's no brightness module, maybe you could add it the next release?

Refactor core and rendering

• fd polling handle by modules
• separate update and render
• cpu/mem style graph rendering
• set prefix or format in module arguments

Flickering text before rendering in some environments

Maybe the cause of flickering is take time to get title of active window.
But reproduce by only some environments.

Include a battery module

Please include a module to show battery status, and remaining time.

Thanks

High CPU usage when disconnect ALSA

No Desktop bullets are shown after start

When restarting X (and bspwmbar via bspwmrc) the dektop bullets are not shown. As a workaround I start bspwmbar wih a sleep command from the bspwmrc file, i.e.

sleep 10;bspwmbar &

Are there better ways to do this?

Change systray to be module

Question: bspwmbar at the bottom

Is it right now possible to place bspwmbar at the bottom of the screen instead of the top?

regular clock support?

Is it possible to change the 24 hour clock, to a 12 hour clock in this?
And if not, can you support this feature in future?
If it does, can you document how?
It is a lovely status bar, minimal and all that, but that is my only issue with it.

Still not working on OpenBSD - volume module

I get error when trying to start it:
volume: failed to open /dev/mixer
I am sorry if this is a previlige problem but I doubt it.

Include Network Module

Please include a module to show network status, like connected wifi name, no network, cable wired, and so on.

Thanks

how to make systray clickable?

and workspaces too (like in polybar scrollable) ('cuz bspwmbar must replace polybar)

bspwmbar exiting when system is put to sleep

Hi there!

bspwmbar seems to exit when the system goes to sleep, it is exiting cleanly, no error messages or bad return codes.
It does that regardless if it was launched from bspwmrc or manually.

Is this intended behavior?

Greetings,
Jan
