Re: Qtile + Gnome? (Hi)
I think this should do: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xinit# … w_managers
Do you start your session via a DM or via xinit/startx?

Why I run Arch? To "BTW I run Arch" the guy one grade younger.
And to let my siblings and cousins laugh at Arsch Linux...

Re: Qtile + Gnome? (Hi)
If jl2's answer solved your problem and in general please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
If you're actually asking wether you can somehow replace the gnome window manager w/ qtile, ie. run a gnome session with qtile as windowmanager, the short answer is no. The long answer is because it's gnome.
