Very nice! Minor nitpick: In hexadecimal, f is 15; 10 is 16
This is true. Don't want to be giving out misinformation.
16th number in the range 0-F though 😉
Thanks for shouting out my little script at the end there mate :-)
Thx for making it
This is why I use polybar too. It's so easy to carry on to other WMs. I use it between i3 and BSPWM every day.
Amazing. I use nitrogen for changing between wallpapers using specific keybindings, however, feh is my number one tool for choosing a random image from wallpapers folder instead of the default one provided by AwesomeWM.
Appreciated, tag/tasklist compatibility coverage would have been nice
That's a pretty slick desktop environment you have going there. Fun watching you set it all up. Really great work on the thumbnails and everything in your channel.
Nice after decades of arch Linux I'm learning wm
so i was seeking same thing, i saw your reddit post and i was like, if he wants he wants, lol. now i found your video. amazing.
you have really good videos. although because I don't know all the shortcuts yet, I kinda miss the action sometimes. Would be nice to append this videos to others where you talk about the usability in everyday use. So we learn more to appreciate all this work. Awesome content!
4:02 its kind of surprising that you can now install polybar on the official archlinux repos nowadays...
Hey MAKC, wonderful video! Thank you for teaching me how to configure awesome as a new user! I'd also like to know how do you print out your to-do list at the beginning of your terminal, could you plz show that also? Thank you big time!
It's just a text file, then add "cat NameOfFile" to a .bashprofile or .zprofile
Thanks for watching
wow thumbnail is just sick
Were you able to get your tags and windows listed in polybar?
Instead of deleting, i recommend just commenting the lines where wibar is executed, this way you don't delete that much stuff
2:52 oh the CORK!!
Great video, exactly what I was looking for! Unfortunately I encountered two small issues...
1. Although I have the default config fonts installed, I got no tray icons.
2. Even if I set the `useless_gap` in rc.lua to 0 there's always a small gap between the windows and the polybar, I removed the padding as you did in the video but this gap bellow the polybar persisted.
AwesomeWM and Ardbeg 10? Take my sub mate!
How can we add workspaces to polybar
you can put `visible = false` in wibar to make it hide, no need to delete lines
👌
Nice video and explanations but what about the buttons for the workspaces on the left?
well nice to see someone use i3 2nd gen processor like me ;)
BTW love your videos
Thanks for watching. I was planning on upgrading the system, but running Arch I barely have a need to.
No "polybar" package on Ubuntu :( That's what prevented me from using it for so long, but one day
Hey 1st af all, thanks for this video tutorial, it's helping me understanding quite better than the wiki itself. I can't get (still not finished watching tbh, so i don't know if you will cover it later) the point of setting font-0, font-1, font-2 (in your config as in the wiki examples). At first glance, seeing my font-0 is used, i thought of a preference order, and the fallback in case the font-0 isn't found... but, if i manually set a font of preference, it's kinda obvious it's there. Then i thought about config file portability to other systems, but... again, if it's my font of preference, i make sure it's installed on the destination pc/environment too. There should be some other use of multiple font setting. Third thought crossing my mind right when i was closing this comment, it may be just a global setup, and later in a specific module config, setting the font simply referencing font-x instead of writing font names all around the configuration files, keeping instead, all together. Any clue/info?
hm, what if I want to display my tags in polybar , is it possible ?
No it's not possible
Is there any key that I can use to access polybar, instead of using the mouse? I wish to use keyboard only.
Hey have you thought about uploading to LBRY? Its super easy to sync up your content there!
I'll look into it -- never heard of it before now.
Great video mate. What font are you using in terminal? That looks nice
Should be either Fira code or source code pro
Is there any guide for Multi-Monitor cos i am using nearly identical config as you but multiple monitors are not working properly , i have display on the monitor and wallpaper is set rofi launcher shows up on screen but no application is displayed but when I get back to default configuration everything just works
thanks for the informative video! sadly, i'm having issues with KMix. when Awesome starts, KMix starts as a full window and has four tabbed sections for me to control sound. i'm using Void Linux, in case the package names don't match, but i saw no sign of that happening
I may not have looked through all of your links, but I noticed that your wallpaper link says Invalid Request. Could you guide my hand in the direction of your wallpapers? Want to use them myself :)

AWESOME VIDEO THANKS!
What is running the clock/date in the upper right hand corner from the start of the video to the 2 minute mark? curious
Tty-clock manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man1/tty-clock.1.html#description
@@makc Thank you!
You lost the task list, the Awesome's killer feature!
Excuse me, do you know how can i change the date format to use a different language?
nice video
AwesomeWM seems to prevent polybar from receiving mouse events on the bar once polybar is the focused window
Last time I looked that's a known issue and hasn't been fixed yet. I can't find the link anymore, but I saw it in the pull request logs somewhere on the Polybar GitHub.
*Me seeing the song he plays*
That's rough, buddy
That’s why you don’t connect a private Spotify account to a Google home
Haha Leaves of the Vine is an incredible song from an incredible show! It's great that you had that on here! Ima head over and tear bend right about now
👍👍
How do I seu up polybsr for dual monitors
How about a 2023 update to this video? Please.
Hello nice video, please update your link to your wallpapers. Thanks.
There is literally no reason to use polybar along with AwesomeWM, as you can make a 100 times better bar with built-in libraries
Hey thanks for the guide was very usefull ! minor issue my kmix mixer look very bad it looks like windows 97 and i cant seem to find where i can adjust that anyone got that issue ?
Polybar isn't in the ubuntu apt
that cork
16:24 lmao why A is 11 when after 9 goes 10, not 11. 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F. A is 10, B is 11
Feh and nitrogen are too bloated for me. I use xwallpaper to set the wallpaper.
I have compared, but feh uses 1 mb less memory then xwallpaper
@@Robertass2000 u guys on 128mb of RAM or what?!
@@liam3491 I was just curious and nothing more. Compared and forgot :)
@@Robertass2000 i respect that
There's no point using polybar with any WM that contain a bar of it's own. Totally stupid.
Polybar is way beautiful than default awesome bar
And way easier to configure as well
