biscuitwm's Issues

Cant open Chromium-Browser

Im new to Biscuit and i am currently trying to open an browser
if run "chromium-browser" in the deskbar nothing is happening

anythin that i need to do?

my start script:
`
#!/bin/bash

OLDDISPLAY=$DISPLAY
killall Xephyr &>/dev/null
export DISPLAY=:1
Xephyr -screen $1 -br :1 &
export DISPLAY=:0
python3 main.py
pkill Xephyr &>/dev/null
export "DISPLAY=$OLDDISPLAY"

Running a BiscuitWM session 'natively' (not in Xephyr) causes graphics driver corruption

This issue is a note for those trying out BiscuitWM that it is highly recommended to run BiscuitWM within a Xephyr session, and not 'natively'! I have experienced my VirtualBox guest additions graphics drivers getting taken out to pasture.

Launching Firefox (and presumably any GTK3 program) causes BiscuitWM to terminate immediately
