I've been following the discussions on awesome's IRC channel lately, and there have been a lot of problems with users not being able to use their modkey. It turned out that the problem was that a newer version of xcb-util (0.3.4) conflicts with the current released stable version of awesome. Now I see that xcb-util has been pushed to this version in ports. I'm not sure what the proper procedure is for ports which don't work together, but this is just a heads up that there will be problems for awesome users. According to the awesome devs, the solution is to either stay on xcb-util 0.3.3 or install a newer version of awesome (either from git, or use the release candidate for the next version). -- IRC nick: jrick Jabber: jrick@jabber.org http://identi.ca/jrick
