Xmonad/Using xmonad in LXDE

XMonad

Introduction

This page is based on my very limited experience of LXDE and XMonad.

I'm assuming you are using lxsession to start LXDE.

Configuring LXDE to work with XMonad

Create the file ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE/desktop.conf with the content

[Session]
window_manager=xmonad

Configuring XMonad to work with LXDE

A minimal XMonad configuration that works nicely with LXDE looks like this

main = xmonad $ desktopConfig { terminal = "lxterminal" }
