Hi,
I just emerge xmonad-0.11.1-r1 (USE=hscolour) with xmonad-contrib-0.11.1. I (USE= hscolour xft) use slim as login manager, but after starting xmonad login screen freeze (on slim) and nothing happend. I can switch alt+f1 to terminal and restart xdm/slim but I can't run xmonad so I change line:
Code:
xmonad

to:
Code:
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session xmonad

to /etc/X11/Sessions/xmonad.
It didn't helped.

I didn't find any debug/log file for xmonad to try find out what is going on? Anyway any basic tips what could be wrong?

Hy,

the easy way is to comment this line:

Code:
 , ((modMask .|. shiftMask, xK_slash ), spawn ("echo \"" ++ help ++ "\" | xmessage -file -"))


to

Code:
 --,((modMask .|. shiftMask, xK_slash ), spawn ("echo \"" ++ help ++ "\" | xmessage -file -"))


and it's should be working
