Bug ID: 1061568
Summary: Certain X applications do not update window correctly
under xmonad
Product: Fedora
Version: 20
Component: xmonad
Severity: urgent
Assignee: mathstuf(a)gmail.com
Reporter: dgibson(a)redhat.com
QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: haskell-devel(a)lists.fedoraproject.org,
mathstuf(a)gmail.com, petersen(a)redhat.com
Description of problem:
When running xmonad with the MATE desktop, numerous applications don't redraw
properly - interacting with them has effects behinds the scene, but their
window is frozen on the old contents, until switching to another workspace and
back forces an update.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xmonad-0.11-9.fc20.x86_64
xmonad-mate-0.11-9.fc20.x86_64
mate-session-manager-1.6.1-4.fc20.x86_64
mate-settings-daemon-1.6.2-2.fc20.x86_64
mate-desktop-1.6.2-1.fc20.x86_64
mate-desktop-libs-1.6.2-1.fc20.x86_64
How reproducible:
Every time, for me anyway.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log in to xmonad-mate desktop
2. Run any of the following
- Network Manager | Edit Connections...
- virt-manager
- rhythmbox
- various others
Actual results:
Application window stays frozen and does not update as you click or type in it.
Expected results:
Application window updates normally
Additional info:
Killing xmonad, then running "marco --replace" results in applications that
redraw again. Interestingly, after doing that killing marco and restarting
xmonad with "xmonad --replace" leaves the windows redrawing correctly, now
under xmonad.
Killing xmonad, then running "xmonad --replace" without running the other WM in
between does *not* fix the behaviout though.

Hmm I wonder if xmonad-mate needs to run some process to help
or if it marco that is helping.

I wondered about that. I did an strace of the marco process, and couldn't see
it spawning off any other helper processes.
Would that strace output, or some other log from the marco run help you?

Oh, sorry, should have mentioned that temporarily running metacity also fixes
things afterwards, so it's not something purely specific to MATE/marco.

Is this easy to reproduce?
I can edit NM connections no problem and rhythm boxes seems to work fine.
This is with the default Fedora xmonad config.

xmonad configuration
Well, it reproduces for me every time. But it's not obvious to me what's
different between our setups that it's not happening for you.
I've attached my xmonad.hs, in case that provides a clue, although since it
works with this config after running marco, I don't see how that would be
related.
Let me know any other information which might be helpful

related.
Can you try moving your xmonad.hs out of the way
and restarting xmonad to test the default config?
It might be related to your setting LG3D or your evHook.
So testing without those would also be a good idea
to pin this problem.

*facepalm*
Yes, the default config works. After some experimentation, I realised the
problem was that I had just 'startupHook = setWMName "LG3D"' instead of
'startupHook = startupHook baseconfig <+> setWMName "LG3D"', which
makes sense
in hindsight.
Thanks for the pointer, sorry for the noise.
Btw, is there a reason that the gnomeConfig doesn't include the
fullscreenEventHook from EwmhDesktops by default?

--- Comment #9 from Erik Streb del Toro <mail(a)erikstreb.de> ---
Just for other xmonad users searching a solution to this “bug”
(misconfiguration):
The solution is to NOT USE the SetWMName extension in order to convince Java
that xmonad is "LG3D" (which is a deprecated way of working around the gray
java windows). Because this SetWMName breaks GTK3-apps, see the xmonad FAQ:
https://wiki.haskell.org/Xmonad/Frequently_asked_questions#Using_SetWMName
Instead use the preferred method (see FAQ
https://wiki.haskell.org/Xmonad/Frequently_asked_questions#Preferred_Method)
and set an environment variable _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1 at startup. I did
this by adding the following to my xmonad.hs:
import System.Posix.Env (putEnv)
and adding the putEnv line to the startup of xmonad:
main = do
putEnv "_JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1"
Now I can use all java applications and GTK3-apps.
See: https://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=559

Thanks for this! - I almost missed this comment.
I will update our xmonad.hs to do this.
(In reply to David Gibson from comment #8)
Btw, is there a reason that the gnomeConfig doesn't include the
fullscreenEventHook from EwmhDesktops by default?
I don't know. If you think it is wrong
please open an issue upstream or a new Fedora bug.

Hmm, is an explicit "putEnv "_JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1" still needed
for 0.11.1 (F23) or even F22 (0.11)?
I am not able to reproduce this with 0.11.1 in fedora I think.
I tried plain xmonad on F22 too (not xmonad-mate) and itweb-settings.itweb
worked okay for me there - but maybe that is not sufficient test??
It's looking to me as if _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1 in releases Fedora
releases?

--- Comment #15 from Fedora End Of Life <endoflife(a)fedoraproject.org> ---
This message is a reminder that Fedora 21 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 21. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version'
of '21'.
Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.
Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 21 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.
Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Fedora 21 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-12-01. Fedora 21 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.
If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.
Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
