To make use of extensions and Desktop Environment support,
you need to install ghc-xmonad-contrib-devel.
== Configuration for Desktop Environments ==
The default xmonad configuration does not work well with desktop environments.
The following basic generic configuration requires ghc-xmonad-contrib-devel
to be installed, and should get it working:
$ mkdir ~/.xmonad
$ cat > ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs << EOF
import XMonad
import XMonad.Config.Desktop
main = xmonad desktopConfig
EOF
$
You can replace the generic "[Dd]esktop" by:
- "[Gg]nome" for better GNOME support
- "[Kk]de[4]" for KDE support
- "[Xx]fce" for XFCE support.
