To my surprise, all I did was in vain because for some reason i3bar wouldn't display anything at all. For reference here are links to my i3 configuration files: - ~/.i3/config - pastebin.com/raw.php?i=zpC0eVr6 - ~/.i3status.conf - pastebin.com/raw.php?i=efrqBA1HTue, 31 Dec 2013 16:03:30 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/3139/i3status-not-displaying-anything-on-i3bar/https://faq.i3wm.org/question/3139/i3status-not-displaying-anything-on-i3bar/?comment=3140#comment-3140I've just checked your config. It works fine. I use version 4.6. Is there any output if you just run `i3status --config ~/.i3status.conf` from shell?Tue, 31 Dec 2013 18:53:26 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/3139/i3status-not-displaying-anything-on-i3bar/?comment=3140#comment-3140https://faq.i3wm.org/question/3139/i3status-not-displaying-anything-on-i3bar/?answer=3141#post-id-3141Okay, I realized what the problem was! I didn't have i3status installed. I thought it was part of the base package. After I installed it was working.
