Hi,
For some reason Spectrwm window manager won’t work for me. Or spectrwm-git in the AUR. The only one that will work is sscrotwm in the AUR, and I don’t want to use that.
Whenever I go to log into Spectrwm I just get a black screen then it resets itself to the DM. I have my .spectrwm.conf in my root. So I really don’t see why I’m not able to use it.
Someone see something that I don’t?
Thanks
