I want to get rid of this effect and modified following key in gconf-editor as suggested in [URL]apps/compiz/plugins/scale/allscreens/option, change initiate_edge from TopRight to None. but nothing happens on the effect. The top right corner effect still there
View 14 Replies1) What is the window effect called that adjusts all open windows into a viewable position while darkening the backgrounds?2) Is there a source or an already made list of packages ready so I can install it on a different operating system? I'm sticking with F14 as my main Desktop Os, however, would like to use this on a Live USB with Archbang Linux.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm running fedora 10 with enabled desktop effects on an ati card. It seems to have included an effect similar to OS Xs active corners and expose where the top right corner gives me an overview of every window. I have ccsm installed and tried to disable every feature enabled but it doesn't seem to come from there.

View 14 Replies View RelatedThis is something that I started to notice in F12 and it appears to be the case as well in F13. Any changes that I make to my desktop wallpaper in Gnome don't stay in effect after a reboot. Any ideas as to what is going on here? I don't mind the default blue swirly thing in F13, but I at least want the style change from scale to center to stick.
Choosing the 'set as default' option doesn't seem to help either, as that changes the screen you see at the Gnome login. Once I log into my account the default desktop wallpaper is still there.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI like using kopete, but I want to use it in GNOME. When doing so, I have 2 problems:
1) When I login to my computer, kopete starts up, and kde wallet asks fro my password for the wallet, in order for kopete to login to my accounts. This is very annoying. I find it inefficient to have to enter my password twice when turning on my computer.
2) Everytime a buddy signs on/off, a notification (or sometimes numerous notifications) run down the center of my screen and cover all my active windows.I want to disable knotify and kdewallet to alleviate these problems.
I had this problem also in F12, now in F13. Is there a fix for this? It's kind of annoying.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've installed python2.7 and I want all those convenient python libs I've installed from the repos to work with python2.7, but the libs in the repos get installed to python2.6.
No problem, I'll just set the $PYTHONPATH env var so that python2.7 will look at the python2.6 libs. I defined $PYTHONPATH as I wanted in the .bashrc file, and now python2.7 works as I desire when starting it from the shell.
The problem is when I start python2.7 from the gnome desktop (by clicking an application shortcut or button) it doesn't work. My guess is that the env vars set in .bashrc do not effect the gnome desktop, and so my question is what can I do to set an env var on the desktop?
To demonstrate my problem. If I open a bash shell and type "idle-python2.7 -n" idle will open, and I can "import twisted" without any problem in the idle python shell. However, if I do alt-f2 and run "idle-python2.7 -n" idle will still open but sys.path is not set as I would like and I cannot "import twisted". So there is clearly different behavior between an application started from the shell vs one started from the gnome desktop.
Environmental variables have long confused me, I'm also open to other solutions to my "getting python2.6 libs to run in python2.7" problem.
FULL INSTRUCTION: Both .bashrc and .gnomerc are located in your home directory. Put the following at the end of both files:
You should now be able to import the python libs installed from the repos in python2.7.

Is there a way to disable the wobble visual effect without installing an additional program, such as simple-ccsm?
EDIT: My bad, I should add that I would like to keep the visual effects set to "Extra", if at all possible.
The best explanation I can get to my problem is in the title, I get some horizontal strips that I notice specially in videos (I use XBMC, full screen).I had this problem before in 10.4 and I was able to solve it simply by choosing no effects on the old menu for the appearance.
Unfortunately I followed the mote that states "If it works fine in needs more features" and I installed 11.4, now I can't seem to solve this problem... In the loggin screen I have the default option has Ubuntu classic (no effects) and I installed compiz settings and disabled everything there, but I still have the problem.I tried mint debian and I didn't have this problem there with everything off on the settings. How can I get the same effect as that "old" 10.4 menu to disable compiz?
My system:
Ubuntu 11.04

Using gnome I love the desktop effects, except the 'maximize window' effect. There is an annoying delay when I maximize a window. Is there a way to turn this particular effect off, while leaving all the others on. I looked in control center>desktop effects, but the option is not there. The only way I could turn off the maximize effect was unchecking the "enable desktop effects" checkbox. But this turns all effects off. All other effects run smooth and snappy.
View 3 Replies View RelatedSo, supposedly Gnome Shell is available through synaptic. I just downloaded and installed it and then ran gnome-shell --replace. It doesn't work at all. I hit the windows key and get nothing and there is no application launcher in the upper left hand corner and Alt-f2 produces nothing at all. Alt-tab gives me the option of choosing the windows that were running when I ran gnome-shell --replace but nothing else works at all. Just a vast expanse of digital nothingness. Does anyone know why this might be? I have an nvidia video card (see sig below) and two monitors running from "twin view".

I'm not sure if this is a feature of Gnome, compviz, or some other part of Fedora, but whenever I place my mouse in the upper right corner of the desktop, all of my open windows zoom out to a Mac-like Expose feature which allows me to select which window I'd like to change focus to. Here is an example of what this looks like: [URL]
Does anyone know how to disable this feature? I actually find it highly annoying, as I tend to place the mouse in that region either on accident or unintentionally, especially when accessing my machine remotely via VNC. I've had a lot of trouble googling for combinations of "Gnome expose" and "Gnome desktop expose", I have a feeling I am calling this feature by the wrong name. how to do this myself - install the Compiz Configuration Settings Manager (the package name is "ccsm") and disable the "Scale" plugin.
I have been running Fedora Core 6 for about a year and a half with no problems. But now here is one that has me stumped. When I boot the system (IBM T30 laptop) and log in with my user name every thing works iike it should. I get my desk top and tool bars. If I click on my tool bar and open a terminal session (xterm according to echo $TERM ) the t key does not work. I have tried to open a VI editior session and the t key still does not work. However if I open any other application, (text processor, web browser, spread sheet, etc.) the t key now works. Also if I log out of the system and log in as root the t key now works in a terminal sessiion. I have tried to find my .profile file to find out if a key binding has gone bonkers but no luck.

1. It shows root@localhost kostia, but during the installation of Fedora 13 DVD x86 I renamed localhost.localdomain into baikal as my laptop name. Very strange error. On static PC I used amour name and it works without localhost.
2. Above you can see my list of initial cards. I wish to know where is it my ethernet card? The bug #2 is that after Fedora was installed, I can't see any connections in my Network Manager. So I created Wired one myself. After that I still can't see the icon in the top-right corner to restart the connection as usually we may do that. So, what is wrong? How to make my laptop going to the Internet.
I just installed Fedora and all works great but i have a little problem. When I move the mouse to the right bottom corner, the cursor freeze a couple of seconds, and after that any problems. But every time i move the mouse cursor to that corner, the same freeze.I try disabling the desktop effects but nothing change, always the same problem
