OpenSUSE :: Unable To Move Window To Second Screen

Jun 11, 2011

i just installed openSuse and i have very little experience with linux OS. I used this guide to setup my two monitors and they are both running ok but i have the following problem:My mouse pointer can go to the second monitor without a problem, but i can't move a window there. When i move the window to the edge of the screen it just resizes it. it doesn't move it to the next screen.

Ubuntu :: Move The Window Control Buttons When The Window Is In Full Screen Mode?

May 3, 2011

How do I move the Window control buttons when the window is in full screen mode? I.e.: I know how to go into gconf-editor:

Code:
gconf-editor --> apps --> metacity --> general --> button layout = ":minimize,maximize,close"
(I've intentionally disabled the menu...)

What I want is my window controls to be on the right side of the window when the window is in full screen mode.

Also I've had an issue with the Unity dockbar glitching out. I can still click on the buttons (i.e. the logout button) but it displays like a nintendo game inserted crooked. Is there a way to 'restart' unity without log out/ log in?

Any one else experienced any glitches with unity auto hiding/showing?

Ubuntu :: If Move The Window To The Second Screen It Switches To Fullscreen Mode

May 1, 2011

Upgraded to Ubuntu 11.04 which trashed my useful desktop.

Synapticed gnome and changed login preferences to ubuntu classic which basically fixed the desktop except...

If I open a program, say LibreOffice or firefox it opens correctly.

If I move the window to the second screen, it switches to fullscreen mode.

If I click on the resize button, then it opens correctly, but on the first screen

Ubuntu :: Disabled Some Plugins- Unity Is Gone And Everything Opens In The Upper Left Hand Corner - Unable To Move The Window?

Aug 18, 2011

So I was fooling around with compiz settings manager and was trying to get the cube to rotate around, and by doing so I disabled some plugins (because I was prompted to do so) and now Unity is gone and everything opens in the upper left hand corner so much so that I can't move the window. It was pretty rash for me just to disable plugins,how to get everything back to normal.

Jan 4, 2010

slackware and am infact running Vector Linux which is slackware based. I used to use fedora on my old laptop got a new on and tried vector.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: ATI 3D Accel Fail - Screen Would Occasionally Blank When Opened A Window

Jul 16, 2010

I booted the 11.3 live cd (KDE) and it worked great, so I installed openSUSE. After installation my video acted funny - the screen would occasionally blank when I opened a window, moved or resized a window, etc. It's as if the video driver decided to redraw the entire screen.

So I rebooted the live CD to see what was different and noticed this:

So it seems the 3D driver is an issue. Is there a way I can tell SUSE to just use the swrast 3D driver?

Ubuntu :: Clicking Does Not Move Window To Front

May 25, 2010

I have two windows A and B open unmaximized such that their area overlaps with A in front. If I click window B it gets the focus as I expect, but window A stays on top of it. All my keyboard events get sent to window B correctly, but I need to click on the title bar for it to appear on top of window A. Switching windows using Alt+TAB or taskbar click works as I expect - window B will appear on top. I encountered this in 10.4, not sure if it was there before or I only noticed it now. Is this a bug or some setting somewhere I need to adjust?

General :: What Is It Called When You Move A PDF Window While It Is Loading

May 18, 2010

1. What is it called when you move a PDF window while it is loading and the window manager does not keep up with the image, (it gets all blurry when the window is moved?)Why does this happen?

2. Why is it that when a browser window is clicked to load a new address it won't always go to it. It has to be clicked again.

3 Why is it that sometimes IE is the only browser that will work on XP. FireFox and Opera will not load a page but IE will.

4 Why is it that Firefox on Linux sometimes everything inside the window is slow to appear. It has to be closed to fix it. When the contents does appear it is all at once.

5.Why is printing different things on Linux a problem. I have a lot of inconsistency with trying to print things from Evince. Some docs print and some won't. Copying and pasting is also a problem for Evince.Why?

6. Is there a way to have Linux Shut down after computer activity has stopped and not just with a timer. Lets say I'm trying to download something and I want it to turn off after it has finished with the down load.

7. Why are some Web pages biased towards Windows. I notice that some java scripts will only run right on Windows machines with IE. A lot of on-line forms are like this.

8. Can (MOVIES, PICTURES AND MUSIC) torrents be downloaded on Linux without risk?

9. It seams that Linux browsers do not keep previous web pages in memory so if you want to go back Linux always has to reload them from the server. Why is this?

10. Why is it that browsers sometimes won't indicate that the page has finished loading, "ever".

11. Why does Linux turn on the number-lock when loading its self?

12. Why can't the brightness be adjusted in Totem? There is a menu to change it but it does not work.

Dec 4, 2010

I use Xubunt 10.04, today when login, I found:

I notice the upper right corner resize tab disappears. If open another application, it is again anchored at upper left corner and cannot be moved.

2)under Settings>Xfce Setting Manager> Window Manager, all the icons are gone. Same inside Window ManagerTweaks. I used "xfce4-panel" in terminal, it doesn't help.
