X and Fluxbox :: Firefox - JWM - v4.1 - Alt+Home not working



Thanks lucky,

I'm going to leave JWM for my wife and the Guest account but I'm going to switch back to Fluxbox until Joe decides to stop clobbering keys.  I can see the advantages of JWM for DSL in general; however, I navigate with the keyboard way too much to live without it behaving properly.
Like I wrote, it doesn't bother me on laptop or desktop. It's all  in the way you choose to configure it and/or your keymap. I'm sure you can find a key or two to rebind for HYPER and SUPER and save ctrl and alt for everything else. MyDSL also has utilities xbindkeys and xkeycaps. I should add another one to those.

Edit: I forgot these. JWM is able to do a lot of what these two utilities do (controlling windows via GROUP tags, keymapping, etc.).

SOLUTION: I got to play around with JWM a little more this evening. It's the nextstacked command that clobbers whatever key(s) are bound to it and not the use of root menu keybindings. I changed alt-tab to "next" (which pages through windows in sequential order rather than between previous and current windows and then sequentially if continued) and now I have full use of alt- commands in all apps. JWM isn't evil, but nextstacked is.

EDIT: Ahhhhh... total keyboard control in JWM. This is perfect. I may not go back to ratpoison.
Thanks lucky,

I've been using JWM with your 'next' fix for the whole day and I think it solves the problem for me.

Thanks for the update and sharing. I will make adjustment to iso.
