Some Awesome questions

I have succesfully installed and configured Awesome and i have some problems. I cant get everything stuck together. There are gaps that i can't get rid of:

Also how do you configure urxvt. I tried the .Xdefaults way but it doesn't work. Tips anyone?

Re: Some Awesome questions

In your .awesomerc enter the following:

 general 
{
     resize_hints = false
 }

This will remove the gaps, but urxvt without true transparency still looks weird in tiling wm's IMO.

Re: Some Awesome questions

Thank you for that quick answer. I am using gnome-terminal(so easy to configur 8) ) but i'm looking for an alternative. I've read that urxvt is a very good terminal emulator.

Re: Some Awesome questions

Urxvt is very good and fast, especially when using the daemon (urxvtd + urxvtc). Xdefaults should work if you place it in your home directory. Search these forums for some working examples.

Re: Some Awesome questions

Ashren, thanks for that resize tip. Was wondering why the gap was there.
