To enable compiz I have download and installed (using OneClick) the nVidia driver for my nVidia GForce 8500GT video card.I need to enable the 'Enhanced Zoom' because I'm a low vision user and I need a magnifier better than Orca.The problem is that when i try to enable it (from ccsm) there isn't any zoom... I try to press META (or Super) and scroll with wheel (SUPER + Button 4) but nothing.
I have see that if I press Super+2 (increase zoom) the mouse pointer moves to a specific screen zone but the screen will not zoom.
I have a Philips webcam I would like to get to work with a proper driver on Ubuntu 10.04. It will work under a generic driver on programs such as Skype, but as soon as I try to use it for web cam sites such as BlogTV, it will say "Webcam required on this site."I have seen similar posts on this and other websites, pointing towards SPCA, but everything I have tried has not worked.When trying SPCA, I tried to do install on the terminal and all that would happen is terminal would respond with: "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded."Is there an easier method I am missing here, or is there something am I doing wrong?

Needless to say that the position picker in properties does not contain any "second screen" options.

I've been around a while, but never using software raid, but I want to upgrade the hardware here in the next few months so if I take that drive, plug it into the new server, under disk management, will I be able to just mount it? I know there getting good, but I assume somewhere there has to be a config file or something that says 'hey use these 4 external drives' or something like that.
In linux we can zoom the screen using Windows Key + Mouse Scroll. On windows 7 how to do it
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I zoom out to see all my virtual desktops using the expo plugin in compiz, it displays them side by side. I want to make the windows bigger. I have four virtual desktops and would prefer to have it display two in one row and two in another row so that I can get a better view of what's going on in them. Is there a way to do that?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow to connect HDMI camera to Linux? I have tried a few cameras such as the Bullet HD. I was never able to make it work in my CentOS, Fedora, I returned their product finally, it was a nightmare. Therefore instead of risking for next failure I am looking for a definitive answer on this, so that no driver issues arise under Linux and finally allow me not to use Windows or Mac anymore. Has anyone ever had success with making a very very good quality camera work in Linux, such as for example this one? Which HD cameras are there for Linux? There should be no driver issues and they should also allow me to perform pan/tilt/zoom actions using USB, Firewire or the S-Video interface.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn Firefox 3.6 on Ubuntu 9.10, certain sites seem to use bitmap fonts for any fixed-width fonts, but only at specific zoom levels. This site and other Stack Exchange sites are among the affected sites, and of course the default zoom level is affected. At unaffected zoom levels, I get the expected smooth curvy fonts. How can I make Firefox use the nice curvy smooth fonts at all zoom levels?
Edit: Adding example code for my own reference.

View 8 Replies View RelatedSometimes when I am in the middle of doing something, all of my windows zoom out so I can see them all on the desktop in a grid, and I have to select the window I was using to get it back. I figure this is some kind of keyboard shortcut I'm pressing, but I can't find anything like it in preferences. What is happening and how do I stop it from happening?

View 2 Replies View RelatedHas this feature been removed from the version of Compiz that comes with 10.04?I was running 9.10 for a few months and I configured a feature for zooming out windows into a kind of preview mode.I remember setting up a key combo and when I clicked on any window and pressed the combo, it would cycle between 2 preview sizes of around 25% and 10% and then back to it's normal size.I could drag a zoomed-out window around the desktop but obviously it would not be usable until it was restored to normal size.
The window contents would still update though and it was a great way of keeping an eye on many windows at once.I have looked at every single setting in CompizConfig Settings Manager but it's nowhere to be found and I really miss it!
i have every effect working perfectly on gnome on my acer a110 netbook but cube seems to be proving difficult. Every time i drag a window along it seems to unfold not spin the cube.
Also how can i zoom out to see the cube on my netbook? on the desktop version IIRC system> preferences > advanced desktop effects > desktop cube < but it aint on the netbook
I have put a local marine chart as my wallpaper image (ubuntu 10.10). It's a high res tif image and looks good.
However, occasionally I'd like to zoom in on a particular point. Is there any way of doing this? (I'm not using compiz - as I don't need that level of eye candy).
I know I can open the image manually and zoom - but wondered if there was a way to do it on the wallpaper.
Is there a way to get a fullscreen zoom (eg. compiz's super+scroll) with Ubuntu 11.04 + Unity?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI want to, both, zoom using the SUPER key and the mouse wheel, and then releasing the SUPER key, while still somewhat zoomed-in, be able to scroll down/up the page with the mouse wheel.
I could do it before, but I can't figure out/find out how to do it now.
I am using a ZOOM H1 recorder as a USB microphone on Jessie AMD64. Since I upgraded fron Wheezy to Jessie, it seems that the volume has gone down. I have to set the volume to 135% in pavucontrol and set the recording volume on the H1 to 90 to get good input.
pactl tells me that the interface is :
Card #2
Name: alsa_card.usb-ZOOM_Corporation_H1_000000000000-00-H1
but in pavucontrol it shows up as
H4 Digital Recorder Analog Stereo
There is a problem with the Linux version of Firefox that images pixelate badly when zoomed. This does not happen in the Windows version of Firefox. Ubuntu has a fix for this that works really well (I have used installed it in Ubuntu in the past). Here is the link to Ubuntu's fix: [URL]
There must be some way to fix this is openSUSE.
Im looking for magnifying glass functionalty for ubuntu. I want to use it for web design: watching icons, borders, spaces, etc. I tried the compiz zoom, enhanced zoom and mynifying box bout all of them make things blurry and I couldn't find the way to make things "sharp". Is there such an option for those plugins or an alternative way to have that functionality?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've loaded Ubuntu 10.04 onto a dual boot machine. I have a Zoom 4411 Wireless-N USB dongle that works fine in Windows. The wireless network icon implies I'm connected but I can't connect to the internet or see the PCs on my network. I logged in as root and blacklisted rt2800usb. I am also getting a message about needing to enter the login keyring password, whatever that is. The system is set to log in automatically.Do I need to install the drivers at System -> Administration-> Hardware Drivers as well? Do I need to enter a BSSID in the wireless configuration screen? What is the BSSID if so?And most importantly, did I already post this question? Oh boy, is the ol' melon fried.
