==============
The xmonad package registers a session "xmonad" with the display managers (e.g.
gdm). This session
* sources .xmonad/xmonad-session-rc, if that file is available, and then
* executes xmonad.
This provides a simple way to start auxillary programs and set up various
things. Here are some suggestions what to put in that file:
xsetroot -xcf /usr/share/icons/Adwaita/cursors/left_ptr 16 -solid black
xscreensaver -nosplash &
$(gnome-keyring-daemon --start --daemonize)
setxkbmap de nodeadkeys
xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap
xmonad packages for debian
==========================
The packages for debian are split as follows:
* xmonad
This package contains only the xmonad binary (with it’s man page) in the
default configuration. You do not have to install the haskell compiler to
use this package, but you also cannot reconfigure it to your needs. To do
that, you need the libghc-xmonad-dev package. If that is installed, xmonad
will detect your configuration when you start it and compile a custom
executable in ~/.xmonad transparently.
* libghc-xmonad-dev
This package contains the actual xmonad library, which you need to compile
your custom configuration.
* libghc-xmonad-contrib-dev
A lot of features are distributed in the xmonad extension library. To use them,
you need this package.
* libghc-xmonad-doc
This package contains the documentation for xmonad, including an example
configuration file.
* libghc-xmonad-contrib-doc
The documentation for the extensions, and more information on developing
xmonad extensions.
* libghc-xmonad-prof and libghc-xmonad-contrib-prof
Profiling information. You’ll know when you need it.
The most interesting pieces of documentation are probably:
- /usr/share/doc/libghc-xmonad-contrib-doc/html/XMonad-Doc-Configuring.html
- /usr/share/doc/libghc-xmonad-contrib-doc/html/XMonad-Doc-Extending.html
in the package libghc-xmonad-contrib-doc.
