View 7 RepliesI have a VM with Windows XP that is driving me crazy. Everything works great except the display windows (and networking, but that is a different story) I am open VirtManager and go to display the OS and the images will get distorted. I will open IE and scroll down a webpage and some of the text will remain still and others will move, leave an image of garbage. This makes it very aggravating to use. To clear the page I can shake the window (using the cursor not my hands) or move from one tab to another till it clears.. then if I scroll again I have to deal with it all over again.

Is it possible to install a different windows manager?Currently I am using a HP Netbook 210. The windows manager I am using is gnome-shell that comes as default with Fedora 15. However, I am wondering if I could completely remove this and install a different windows manager. For example I would like to try the xfce 4.8.
I am not talking about completely removing Fedora 15 and then installing Fedora 15 xfce spin. Just the window manager.How easy would it be to remove gnome-shell windows manager and then install xfce 4.8 windows manager?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a single harddisk partitioned with Ubuntu Maverick and Windows 7 installations. I installed Windows first and then Ubuntu, after resizing partitions and adding a new one for Ubuntu. Win7 did not appear in the Grub2 boot menu. I added it (sda3), but on rebooting, I get the message "BOOTMGR is missing/Press Ctrl+Alt_Del to restart".
I understand that Win7 might have put its boot manager in another partition, and sda1 had FAT. I added sda1 as another grub2 entry, but when I try that, I get the error message "Windows Boot Manager/ Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause... Status 0xc0000225/ Info: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible." Attached are fdisk and parted outputs; and the grub2 files I created. How do I get Windows 7 to boot up?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have downloaded and run Wubi. I had it reboot my computer. It did, but the Windows Boot Manager didn't show up; it just went straight to Windows XP like a normal reboot. How do I get it to let me choose Ubuntu instead of Windows XP?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI got Wubi since I have no partitioning experience, following this guide by psychocats: [url]
Everything went just like the guide said it would at first. My problem is, once I reboot, I don't get the Windows Boot Manager screen at all; more specifically this screen:
It just reboots as windows like nothing ever happened, and the other boot options are not related to either wubi or ubuntu at all.
As the sticky indicated, I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling wubi several times with the same results.
I want to make gnome shell my default window manager. I have it installed, and can get it to run from the terminal with gnome-shell --replace.
the effects aren't permanent though. I tried setting gnome-shell to be a start up application but this hasn't worked. I dont want to remove compiz or metacity before knowing if I can get gnome-shell to run by default somehow.
So, how can I get gnome-shell to be my default windows manager?
I installed last ubuntu from windows 7 using wubi and it worked great, i am writing this from ubuntu. The problem is I changed the timeout to 0 on windows 7 startup options as well default operating system to ubuntu, so now i cannot boot to windows because the windows 7 boot manager just flashes and goes directly to the grub boot manager and even if try to choose windows 7 on grub boot manager it only goes back to windows 7 boot manager and the same thing happens.
I have no DVD drive and i only have a 1Gigabyte USB PEN.
I already searched insanely on ubuntu forums, used unebooting, tried creating a windows 7 startup disk with unebooting, tried formating USB PEN with GLParted and choosing FAT32, ex3, NTSF as well with boot flag and then copying files to usb, wich didnt work. I tried to fix it with SUPER GRUB DISK didnt work too....
Is there anyway i can change this little timeout setting from windows 7 boot partition (yes i really learned something) so i can boot to windows 7? By whatever method, it can be from within ubuntu or using a 1Gb pen?
I know it can only be changed using bcdedit.exe but not even with wine it worked.
I am new to ubuntu. So far I really like it. However I am just wondering, is there a way to check and see how much ram and processor you are using similar to Task Manager in Windows?
View 4 Replies View Related1.) I have several versions of ubuntu installed on my computer. Technically, all but one are incomplete installs which I would like to delete if possible?
2.) I would like to access my files from the Windows partition, but it doesn't show up under "system." Is it for some reason impossible to access Windows files?
3.) My computer's performance has dipped substantially in the last two days. I am trying to figure out why this is, if there is a task manager or the like or a performance diagnosis tool. Also, my computer does not have an anti-virus program, that might also be the cause of the poor system performance.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an Acer One netbook,I tried the Moblin and Meego distribution and i liked some parts of the user interface very much,especially the fact that every window that you open comes out well maximized and easy to read on the small screen of the netbook .But I didn't like Moblin/MeeGo because they are too "rigid", difficult to customize if you don't like the default choices. I prefer something like Debian much more.I would like to find a nice, light and fast window manager for Debian that would give me some of the advantages of MeeGo/Moblin,especially the fact of maximize by default every windows that I open..

View 2 Replies View RelatedToday upon booting my Xubuntu 9.04, I see that all new windows I open have their title bar missing and on top of my pannel menu. If I try to run windows manager from the menu, nothing shows up on the screen. Therefore I think my windows manager is not running at all. I have no graphic effects and dont want any. I noticed that nothing shows up on the task bar (bottom bar) when I have anything opened up in the desktop. Can't minimize, can't click close button, ...How do I fix this ? I followed a thread to install Compiz and emerald just so I could get it to work but I do not like this option. I do not want any special effects. The more effects/options I have the more possible problems I may get. By the way I also have this problem on my office Ubuntu 10.04. Both started having this problem recently. I suspect it is an update that was done that is causing this.

Is there a set of commands I can run to achieve this?
