GoldenDict Forum

I use Archlinux.I just installed Goldendict.However,when I want to use it,it said"Failed to initialize hotkeys monitoring mechanism.Make Sure your XServer has RECORD extension turned on." What's wrong with it?
Could you help me,please?

Nothing's wrong. It's just that the version of xserver you use (i.e. the one ArchLinux's shipping) can't handle shortcuts for goldendict correctly. This will hopefully be fixed some months in the future. For now, go to Preferences and turrn off both global hot keys there. The message will go away then. And the scan popup would still work fine.

Thank you very much.What you said really works.
