Hi and thanks, I am looking for docs on how to start stumpwm from xinitrc without a display manager, I have tried a couple examples but no success, the X process fails.
I am grateful for any help

"it fails" doesn't qualify as "informative". Please, give us copy-pasted errors or something.
Or, at least, the contents of your $HOME/.xinirtrc file. Again, copy-pasted. |

Sorry here is my xinitrc, also the message after invocation of the "xinit stumpwm" is
| Code: |
Connection to X server Lost.
Waiting for X server to shutdown
.(EE) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing Log file.
|
Upon investigation I couldn't find 2 things, a stumpwm executable or a stumpwm config file of any kind, emerge seems to install fine.
I have tried startup routines from both the Arch Wiki and from the StumpWM doc site and nothing
When I run the xinit stumpwm that is defined in my xinitrc the monitors flicker and nothing just back to console.
Is there some routine that I should run to create the executable? or some sort of configure routine?
thanks again for all your help.,

I was able to get the executable woring by following the post here
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-937860-start-0.html
the only thing now is my multiple monitors, I read the docs and it is supposed to handle Xinerama but is just treats all 3 of my screens as 1.
Any direction would be great. |
