So I’m using dwm as an interface for Proxmox currently, but here’s my gripes.

  1. Config requires rebuilding.
  2. Hotkeys seem to break for no reason*, last when I created a new user for controlling proxmox.
  3. No real mouse controls for stuff.

Now I realize dwm is mostly a keyboard focused window manager.*

For context, proxmox runs on debian, but doesn’t necessarily support everything properly (ie plasma has heavy visual glitching from something).

    If you’re not dual booting, and you have Windows and Proxmox, then you have two devices and you can use the Proxmox web interface from the other and be done with it.

      No? Windows is installed as a VM in Proxmox, as I’ve mentioned couple times already.

      I do config Proxmox also from Windows, but I need to go back to the barebone Proxmox in case the VM has issues.

      Anyhow, this was about dwm alternatives.
