Hello, am I the only one experiencing some bugs with the latest git checkout in the gnome switcher and gnome window list ? When I click on one of the workspaces on gnome's switcher the cube doesn't rotate, but the windows disappear. I don't know how to describe it well, but it seems like the 4 faces of the cube in compiz and my 4 workspaces on gnome-switcher are now totally unrelated

Hi folks, For ubuntu specs and for a better desktop integration of compiz, I made some patchs and plugins. Focus prevention is now in main stream, and really better can i made :) First the workspace and terminal keybinding patch. Since my last email I updated the patch. http://gandalfn.club.fr/ubuntu/compiz-patch/91-workspaces-terminal-keybindings.patch It adds the support for vertical

I've attatched a patch to fix a bug in the latest switcher patches that got put into CVS. Basically, window order with minimized windows is undefined, and this fixes it. Also, I notice that in some cases switcher fails to get an icon for a window. Perhaps the icon code is forcing a search for a specific size, rather than 'best-fit'? Also, the patch allows usage of alt+shift+tab (in

I was editing a file in gvim when I inadvertently pressed some key combination that caused the vim window to disappear from the desktop. I looked in ps and found that it was still running. Checking the tool bar at the bottom of my display I noticed that a large rectangle now occupied the second of four boxes on the extreme right hand side. Clicking on that box brought back the gvim instance but

Hey Y'all, Does CentOS have a desk top switcher similar to what you find on Fedora? A friend of mine want's to be able to switch between desktops. I've only got Gnome installed on my machine so I don't switch. A search of Google turns up reference to CentOS 4 for desktop switcher but I don't see anything for CentOS 6.3.

I've been a big fan of CentOS for a while, and didn't have many issues with CentOS 4.X over the past few years. However, since moving to CentOS 5.1 a few weeks ago, I have received more problem reports from my users than in the last year and a half on CentOS 4.X. I've previously reported the problem with gnome-terminal crashing (and since there is a single gnome-terminal

I'm trying to use VNC to connect my home Centos box (up to date centos 5) to my Centos 4 (also up to date) at work. I have no problem connecting. The problem occurs after logging in, for every applet in the bottom Gnome panel I get an error box from which I can choose to remove the applet from the panel, or just go on. I choose to not delete but to just go on. After I get a half dozen or so of

Hello, first of all I would like to thank everyone for the effort put into the project. I have found a quite peculiar behavior when using Xgl/compiz. Sometimes my windows disappear, if i use ctrl+alt+shift+left/right i can end up in an empty desktop and if I keep holding ctrl+alt+shift and move back to the previous workspace the window moves back just as if it had been moved previously. Also, if

Compiz 0.8.4 is released! This is the second stable release of Compiz 0.8 series. This release brings two new plugins, translation updates, many bug fixes, improved stability, and better screen resolution change handling. Also included is additional integration work for KDE 4. In particular, window thumbnails are now supported in Plasma window tooltips with the new KDE compatibility plugin, the

Here is a switcher patch to disable window list: It's very useful if you set opacity to 0. Then, window just bring to front one by one while switching. It's much more usable, i think, that small miniatures in a list where you don't see anything. While making this patch, a question come into my head, nobody know on compiz.biz and some people are as curious as me. Two code example:

Greetings everybody! For about two weeks I'm now a happy owner of an intel-powered laptop (chipset, wifi, gfx) and wanted to give it a full test-drive of compiz and other GL-intensive programs. The laptop runs Xorg 7.1.1 and the i810 driver that comes with it (stock rpm from FC6). I'm forced to start compiz 0.3.4 with these options... --use-cow --strict-binding --indirect-rendering

An user is using 2 displays and configured Gnome to "Static Workspaces only on primary display on" using gnome-tweak-tool Till 7.2 it was working as expected. After upgrading to 7.3 the content on the primary screen gets mirrored to all workspaces. When switching to "Static Workspaces only on primary display off" everything is working as expected on 7.3, too. Any ideas?

gang, I feel dumb having to ask this... I've got a Centos 5.5 installation (it's not new, I've been using it for over a year on this machine) and all of a sudden just a few minutes ago everything on the gnome desktop disappeared. no icons, right-click doesn't bring up a context menu. the panels are still there, though, thank goodness. tried logging off and back on but that

Does anyone have remote desktop connectivity working in CentOS 5.3? I'm using the Gnome desktop and have configured the Remote Deskop Preferences to "Allow other users to view your desktop" and "Allow other users to control your desktop". The configuration dialog box says that "Users can view your desktop using this command: vncviewer

I am wanting to remove the 3 default icons on the gnome desktop. the computer, the users home, and the trashcan icon. How do I do that? Thanks, Jerry

I have a couple of oddities that I hope someone here can clarify for me. OS = CentOS-5.2 all updates applied to date. 1. On the gnome desktop in the top panel (or menu bar) I have an icon for "System Monitor" which runs the application "gnome-system-monitor". On my other desktop CentOS-5.2 system I have the same thing. However, one one system the icon gives me a real time

Hello, I have several CentOS 6.2 hosts (2.6.32-220.7.1.el6.x86_64) that lock up when attempting to use the Gnome desktop from the console. I can always log in, but then all I get is the blue root window, the round initial mouse pointer, and nothing else. The last process associated with the console is "xprop -root" which strace shows as hanging indefinitely. There are cases

Hi, With some help from Quinn_Storm, iXce, maniac103, mikedee and KristianLy :), I've managed to modify switcher.c and make a new plugin: thumbnail. The plugin shows thumbnails of windows when cursor is moved over a task button in taskbar. Screenshot: http://pix.nofrag.com/b0/7a/051d45e25bfffed09eeb9b00e383.jpeg Download:

I?ve got a CentOS 7 VM here that was installed with one of the CLI-only presets. To answer a question in another thread here, I wanted to install a GNOME desktop environment in it, so I went searching and found the standard instructions for doing that. The problem is that rebooting the VM gives me a black screen after it finishes the text booting parts. There?s an X cursor, and wiggling the

Ever since I upgraded all my systems to CentOS 5.1 I have been getting reports from users about "all their windows disappearing". A little digging revealed that they meant all gnome-terminal windows. Since there is only one gnome-terminal process by default for all your open terminal windows and tabs, a crash of that process means losing all your terminal windows. These
