[SOLVED] dwm title bar empty

My dwm title bar is always empty, no matter which window is focused:
https://i.imgur.com/DRXXf0k.png?1
I tested dwm (aur) + dmenu, dwm-git(aur) + dmenu-git(aur) and dwm + dmenu built from the latest source on suckless.org.
I didn't changed anything in config.h.

Also, the tag section is always on 1, no matter which tag is onscreen.
And the layout symbol([]=) never changes.
The program calling (Alt-p) works.

Do i have to put something in config.h or in .xinitrc ?

Edit: See last post

Re: [SOLVED] dwm title bar empty

Sorry for the image.
My config.h is here: https://ptpb.pw/24u5 and my .xinitrc:

#!/bin/sh

userresources=$HOME/.Xresources
usermodmap=$HOME/.Xmodmap
sysresources=/etc/X11/xinit/.Xresources
sysmodmap=/etc/X11/xinit/.Xmodmap

# merge in defaults and keymaps

if [ -f $sysresources ]; then

    xrdb -merge $sysresources

fi

if [ -f $sysmodmap ]; then
    xmodmap $sysmodmap
fi

if [ -f "$userresources" ]; then

    xrdb -merge "$userresources"

fi

if [ -f "$usermodmap" ]; then
    xmodmap "$usermodmap"
fi

# start some nice programs

if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ] ; then
 for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/?*.sh ; do
  [ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
 done
 unset f
fi

redshift &
exec dwm

Re: [SOLVED] dwm title bar empty

Your config and xinitrc look fine. The blue rectangle close to the right end of the bar looks very odd...

What happens when you change the layout from titling to floating? Do the windows actually float?

Re: [SOLVED] dwm title bar empty

Yes, the windows do float, but the symbol only changes if i click it. ([]= to ><>)
If i use Alt-f, the symbol remains the same.

Re: [SOLVED] dwm title bar empty

Please paste the full output of a compile and some details of your graphics stack/setup. An xorg log would probably be helpful, too.

Re: [SOLVED] dwm title bar empty

Not sure if OP is merely missing this to have output on the dwm bar

conky | while read -r; do xsetroot -name "$REPLY"; done &

sorry for the noise if i'm mistaken

Re: [SOLVED] dwm title bar empty

The bar isn't printing the window titles (which it should in the case of apps that send them), nor is the layout glyph being updated.

  • xf86-video-intel

My log from dwm^aur:

Re: [SOLVED] dwm title bar empty

Nothing leaps out at me. All I've got left is for you to build vanilla dwm from suckless source (with no changes to config.def.h) and see if that acts up.

Re: [SOLVED] dwm title bar empty

Turns out it was the intel driver. I unninstalled xf86-video-intel and it started working perfectly.
