Hello Jacob, this does not seem like an EXWM issue, though it could be that running EXWM makes it trigger more often. The backtrace shows an error in This is a bug in Emacs (I think). Please, report it to the Emacs bugtracker with |
Also, I will not close the issue just yet in case there is something related to EXWM. |
Perhaps you should try starting programs without the |
Do you have any suggestions on how I could do that? Do you mean using something along the lines of Rofi? |
I think @ch11ng means using a launcher such as the following instead of invoking Lines 49 to 51 in 27a884e
It's better if you don't need the process' output, as it's often the case. |
Now i am using dmenu. I am not exacly sure what originally caused that problem, I ended up reinstalling emacs. |
I am currently using exwm as my main window manager, and everything seems to be working fine... everything except one thing :(
At first the problem seemed to be quite random, but now I think I figured out the (possible) source. When I open a window, everything runs nicely. However, if I try to open another window and I "overlay" it (by putting it in the same emacs window than the other) bad things happen. I guess this is because even though in a tiling window manager there's no such thing as "overlaying windows", their effective positions are equal. Anyways, here are the symptoms:
In the messages buffer these two errors start getting spammed, quite randomly:
If I turn on debug-on-error, this is the backtrace I get:
At first, I wanted to ignore this error but it's not really possible. It makes executing commands really difficult, because every time it appears it locks your keyboard for a few seconds, all your keystrokes get mixed up and it is very annoying in general.
I have no idea what that backtrace means, nor if that has anything to do with any packages/configurations I have. If needed I'll post potentially relevant configuration files.
Many thanks in advance :)
