Awesome theme not loaded
rockyhotas opened this issue · 9 comments
Presenting this theme, you mentioned this dotfiles repository. I cloned it to apply the theme, using AwesomeWM 4.2 on NetBSD 8.0. However, it doesn't work, showing two error messages:
Oops, an error happened!
invalid key to 'next'
Oops, there were errors during startup!
error while running function!
stack traceback:
[C]: in function 'key'
/usr/pkg/share/awesome/lib/awful/key.lua:88: in function </usr/pkg/share/awesome/lib/awful/key.lua:80>

/home/userdir/.config/awesome/config/keys.lua:421:in function 'init'
/home/userdir/.config/awesome/rc.lua:103: in main chunk
I do not know the lua language. Is there anything I can do?
Can you try to comment (or delete) the marked lines: .config/awesome/config/keys.lua:416-439
Thanks for reporting, this doesn't happen with the current Git version of AwesomeWM though.

Ok! Unfortunately, the result is another error (though maybe it is caused by a different problem):

You're welcome. Surely, the version of AwesomeWM in pkgsrc (4.2nb3, the one I'm using) is older.
If it can be useful, I followed this procedure to debug X. Here is the resulting log:

It is very recent; what I meant to state is that it's something that has been fixed.
This second error is unrelated to the first one. Your second logs provides some useful information:
stack traceback:
/home/userdir/.config/awesome/lain/widget/mem.lua:37: in function 'func'
/usr/pkg/share/awesome/lib/gears/object.lua:118: in function 'emit_signal'
/home/userdir/.config/awesome/lain/helpers.lua:96: in function 'newtimer'

In this case mem (the memory widget) is causing the error. Can you try to comment out .config/awesome/themes/blackout/theme.lua:1145 (mem_widget is a wrapper widget around mem)? And also try to comment out subsequent widgets, if there are more errors. As far as I can tell so far, the origin seems to be Lain, though I'm not sure. For the other widgets, also make sure to setup the variables according to your machine: .config/awesome/rc.lua:51-64.
Sorry if I'm hijacking you guys, but...
...things like lain or vicious won't work OOTB in NetBSD, they are built for Linux.
There was a port of vicious to FreeBSD, but I don't know if it's still alive. In any case, it also would need to be modified.
What I can tell is that the widgets built natively into awesome work, I use awesome on both Void and NetBSD. On Void I use vicious, on NetBSD I use only the native support.
Example - battery widget, there is no /sys/class/power_supply on NetBSD so, for example this, https://github.com/deficient/battery-widget/blob/master/README.md won't work.

I commented as suggested, but the error keeps being the same.
As far as I can tell so far, the origin seems to be Lain, though I'm not sure. For the other widgets, also make sure to setup the variables according to your machine: .config/awesome/rc.lua:51-64.
Ok, I've modified the variables, but no changes in the above error. Maybe the problem is just the one signaled by @voidpin .
Sorry if I'm hijacking you guys, but...
No problem, thank you instead.
...things like lain or vicious won't work OOTB in NetBSD, they are built for Linux.
Now I can't try with a Linux machine, but this is important to know. Thanks.

Ok! If you know any theme using only native support, and if they are not OT here, please let me know.
Example - battery widget, there is no /sys/class/power_supply on NetBSD so, for example this, https://github.com/deficient/battery-widget/blob/master/README.md won't work.
Yes, of course: that path doesn't exist in NetBSD.
@rockyhotas
We could either continue the discussion here or move over to https://unitedbsd.com
Does this look good enough for you, https://unitedbsd.com/t/what-does-your-bsd-look-like-screen-shots/109/21?u=pin ?
EDIT: The four native themes found in /usr/pkg/share/awesome/themes will work OOTB.
I've created mine from zenburn.
Yes, I prefer to continue the discussion about your Awesome theme in https://unitedbsd.com/t/what-does-your-bsd-look-like-screen-shots/109/24. As regards the theme of this issue, instead, maybe the reason why it does not work is due to lain and freedesktop, that are not compatible with NetBSD.
Thank you :)
Note for @alfunx : there has been an upgrade available in NetBSD involving the packages
gobject-introspection-1.56.1 lua52-gi-0.9.1 libxkbcommon-0.8.2 awesome-4.2nb3
After applying it, however, the same error keeps appearing. Thank you so much anyway!
