Awesome not reading rc.lua
I'm trying to give awesome3.1 a go, but it isn't reading my rc.lua. It just keeps the default everything. Really all I've changed is the theme.

Re: Awesome not reading rc.lua
The most likely reason for you seeing the default settings, or nothing is that there is some error in the configuration file. You would have to take a look at the error output of xorg. Since I start X using startx I can look at it on the first sterminal (ALT - CTRL - F1). I don't know where the output would go if you use GDM or something similar.
If there are errors you could post them here and people might be able to help.
If the comment of the second config file is correct then the config most likely wont work with awesome 3.1 since the sytax of the config file changed between 3.0 and 3.1
Another possibility to get a working config would be to copy the default awesome config into your ~/.config/awesome folder and then gradually make changes to it, exchanging content for stuff from other configs, that way you'd know which change brakes something.

Re: Awesome not reading rc.lua
Try copying over /etc/xdg/awesome/rc.lua to ~/.config/awesome, and change what you want from there. Big chance other people's configuration files are incompatible with the version you are running. 
(Mine is usually up to date for the latest -git version.)

Re: Awesome not reading rc.lua
I've got one semi-working now by starting from scratch, thank you. I can't find any documentation on how to set up keybindings though, or how to reference alt and control keys.

Re: Awesome not reading rc.lua
I wonder what to do when awesome changes it's rc.lua structure and rc.lua stops working. Can we know what lines of the config are not correct?

Re: Awesome not reading rc.lua
You can check syntax erros by running luac -p rc.lua.
