Awesome WM menu missing Firefox

rated 0 times [ 2] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 5013 / 2 Years ago, tue, july 12, 2022, 12:46:27

After sudo apt-get install awesome awesome-extra and logging into it (with no previous configuration that I know of), there's no menu entry for Firefox. All my other stuff is there - Mutt, Meld, jEdit, BOINC, etc., only Firefox is missing. I have no ~/.config/awesome/ directory, so there should be no override in place.

Try the menubar instead. It's mapped to modkey + p in the default config, and appears to be built using .desktop files:

local menubar = require("menubar")

...

awful.key({ modkey }, "p", function() menubar.show() end)
