[Solved] Xfce and Xmonad.hs

Does anyone here use Xfce with xmonad as the windowmanager? I've been trying to get it to work properly for a couple of days now but my Haskell skills are non-existent. I'd appreciate it if someone could post a working xmonad.hs for me to use as a template.

Thanks!

Re: [Solved] Xfce and Xmonad.hs

You shouldn't need anything special in your xmonad.hs to run Xmonad with Xfce.  The default xmonad.hs should be fine.

What you would need to do is specify xmonad as the window manager of choice in your startup file (e.g. ~/.xinitrc). For example:

xfce-mcs-manager
xfdesktop &
xfce4-panel &
exec xmonad
