Re: ratpoison
Can you run keyboardsetup twice? The first time just choose US and the second one choose the one you want. Then try ratpoison again.
Re: ratpoison
That seems to work, if I restart ratpoison, but then when I reboot with the setxkbmap line in .xinitrc commented out, I still get qwerty.
I am doing it like this, but is 'keyboardsetup' something else?
That doesn't do anything in console, X has to be running for it to work.

Code: Select all
mimosa[~]$ setxkbmap us -variant dvp
Re: ratpoison
That must be what's run during installation to choose the keyboard in the first place ... it doesn't seem to be present in the installed system though, and using slapt-get --search, there's no obvious package that would provide it. There's xkbutils, but that's installed.
EDIT
Ah ... salixtools!
And yes, that worked. The particular flavour of Dvorak I use isn't included as an option, but it doesn't matter; I'll just uncomment the line in xinitrc again.

Re: ratpoison
skippy-xd is pretty good in ratpoison. You can see what's running in the windows, and mouse hover (I know, I know) shows a little text box saying what it is. If you click on any window, it takes you there, which I don' think rpexpose used to do.gapan wrote: ↑14. Jan 2022, 12:50 I have uploaded skippy-xd to the 15.0 repos. It's kind of similar. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to support window previews under ratpoison as it does with other WMs, so if you have many xterm windows, it won't be that easy to tell them apart. You can give it a try I guess.
Here's a screenshot.

I know
If you try it in other WMs, you'll see that the previews in skippy-xd are live! In ratpoison you only get the window app icons.

Re: ratpoison
Yeah, it's not as good as rpexpose. Oddly though, you can see the xterm! I always use screen in terminal anyway, so no chance of getting lost.
Thorsten tried to get me to use tmux instead, but I couldn't get the hang of it.
