Hi, I'm using running Xgl/compiz on Gentoo/AMD64/2006.0, with xgl-0.0.1_p20060418 and compiz-quinnstorm-0.0.9.3 on Gnome 2.14. I love the edge-flip feature of rotate, but I sometimes have a problem where, after edge-flipping the mouse pointer seems to jump to the opposite window edge which starts rotating the cube to the next desktop, so I start moving the pointer back, whereupon it jumps back to where it was and starts rotating back to the first desktop, the one I started to rotate from. This may happen 2 or 3 times with the cube rotating back and forth until it finally "calms down" and I have full control of the rotation again. This doesn't seem to be a mouse accelleration problem, i.e. I can be moving the pointer very slowly and it will still happen. It's almost as if the wm loses track of which edge the pointer is near and places it the same distance from the opposite edge. This happens intermittently, but it's incredibly annoying when it does occur. Has anyone else seen this? Is there any other information I can give to help track this down? -- Joe daLuz -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The other thing is sometimes I "miss" the scrollbar and end up accidentally dragging a window border which triggers an edge flip. Not sure if that can really be fixed though, I may simply be forgetting to maximize the window. thanks -mike

Let me know if it's still a problem.> > -- > Joe daLuz > _______________________________________________ > compiz mailing list > compiz@lists.freedesktop.org > http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/compiz-David
