Using spmenu on FreeBSD
This article is a compatibility tracker for running spmenu on the FreeBSD operating system.
Works
Everything except what's listed in 'Doesn't work'
Doesn't work
- Wayland
- Reason: Depends on Linux kernel functions
- Solution: Disable Wayland support when compiling
- Profile menu
- Reason: Unknown
- Solution: Run your profile manager using a separate program or spmenu_run
Bugs
- For some reason, a weird white line can appear sometimes inside of the items. This is likely a bug in the version of Cairo or Pango FreeBSD ships with. I have also had this same issue occur on Void Linux, but all other distributions seem fine.
Building
Building works the exact same, except you must append -Dwayland=false
to disable
Wayland support due to issues listed above.
