Rofi key shortuct immediately closes
I can open the Rofi side-menu by clicking the top-left icon (though I can't type anything to search...), but if I open it via cmd+e, it instantly opens and closes. All configs are unmodified.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Is that the command _G.screen.primary.left_panel:toggle(true)
who open/close or the shortcut?
Hello, I have the same issue. When installing it on a fresh Arch VM the Rofi side menu would just close as soon as I pressed in the search bar or if I pressed mod+E it would open and then instantly close. I decided to give it a try with a Manjaro installation with Awesome. Same problem, however, this time I got the following error:
Failed to execute: 'rofind'
Error: 'Failed to execute child process "rofind" (No such file or directory)
A "workaround" to be able to at least use rofi is to change rofind to rofi in the ~/config/rofi/config.rasi
file, however this breaks the design.
EDIT:
I just tried to install rofi-scripts
and it seem to have solved that issue, I no longer get an error about rofind. But the design is still broken for me in the Manjaro installation (Probably an unrelated issue and I'm gonna give it a try in a fresh Arch installation tomorrow).
Can you try to start Rofi directly from a terminal?
rofi -show drun -theme ~/.config/awesome/configuration/rofi.rasi
I reinstalled Arch and managed to get it working. I'm not entirely sure what I did differently, but I think I might have forgotten to install xorg-apps
on my first attempt. However, the performance was horrible, but at least everything was working this time. (I'm pretty sure the performance part is because of a driver issue). I might give it another go in the future.
You can try without Compton to check the performance

I had the same issue, then found that running rofi -show drun
gives a warning about "failed to set Locale". Make sure you uncomment your locale (i.e. en_US.UTF-8
) in /etc/locale.gen
.
Then run locale-gen
If it still gives the same error, make sure to set your locale variables (LANG
and LANGUAGE
) in /etc/locale.conf
or by running:
localectl set-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8
