Qubes and i3 window manager

[mike]

Hi All,

Could anyone please share some Qubes + i3 tips and tricks?

For instance, how do you launch applications from different qubes using dmenu?

What is the actual command to launch an application in a qube?

Where can I find a source/config for the default Qubes Xfce menu?

Are there any additional resources on Qubes + i3 apart from https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/i3/ ?

Thanks!
Mike

have you installed the qubes-i3-settings package in dom0?

ha, so I'd had installed it, but then I put my own config into .config/i3/config file, working on the assumption that it will just extend the system-wide config, but that's not how it works. :)

anyway, i copied the config properly now, extended it my way and... it's awesome!

thanks!

No, i3 is i3 and awesome is awesome. ;-)
