  • The intersection of people using both StumpWM and the tint2 panel/taskbar is probably pretty small, so I've not a lot of hope, but here's the issue: for whatever reason tint2 will run fine the first time it's started on StumpWM, but restarting it or quitting and running it again doesn't work. If I run it from the commandline I can see that it seems to be starting normally, but it won't actually appear. Any ideas on why this might be or what a resolution/workaround might be. Currently I have to completely exit from StumpWM to get it to re-appear.

  • stumpwm

    The Stump Window Manager

  • Unfortunately when I call restart-hard I encounter this issue: https://github.com/stumpwm/stumpwm/issues/889 (which I hadn't noticed before - that someone else is having a similar issue).

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • polybar

    A fast and easy-to-use status bar

  • Stumpwm's handling of external panels seems to have some issues. A lot of people have had this issue with other panels too (see this polybar issue). The workaround suggested there was to toggle the mode line.
