It is really clear that someone spent a whole lot of time figuring out how to show the desktops in an animation when you switch from one to another. Unfortunately, that person did not think about how annoying that might be when one needs to switch back and forth between a couple of desk tops. I am forced to hold my thought for several annoying seconds while this unhelpful animation shows me the desktop path I have taken. Even worse, it also often leaves holes in my windows that remain obscured until I change window content. Sometimes, it is simply too inconvenient or even nearly impossible to refresh the content. So I have to live with this hole in the window. I searched for "switch" in my desktop settings and I've googled for "switch desktop animation", but I'm not thinking of the keyword that the inventor thought of. I don't know how to turn it off.
I have a relative who's starting Linux. He wants a Stop Animation Program for openSUSE 11.2. Is there a stop motion animation program in Linux? If so, what is it? I could switch to Ubuntu, Fedora, or Debian if necessary.
I have linux suse installed on VMware, my pc is running Windows XP. I have a switch connected to my ethernet card (also through console cable). When I am on windows I can ping the switch, but from linux I can't. My ethcard is "Bridged" on VMware, I can ping 127.0.0.1.

Has anyone had or run into a problem with Very large (2.75sq) Icons on the desktop at boot up that you pretty much can not do any thing with anything. It happened just after a update and then it restarted, which was weird cause I can't remember the last time Ubuntu had to restart after an update. Sad thing is I can't recall what the update was but I do know that It asked me for permission to restart Mozilla then the whole thing shut down for a reboot
I had remote desk running on a machine and I went downstairs the other day, turned it on, and someone was controlling the machine. Of course that's partially my fault since there was -zero- rd password set. However, my question is how did this person figure out my IP and get past the router to the machine? I don't have any forwarding setup. My router admin password is (has always been) strong. I guess my question now is: Is there anyway to restrict rd access to the local network?
I want to sync several directories between my laptop and desktop both at home and away from home. It seems like the tool to use for this is unison (I use rysnc for backups, but union seemed, better for this sort of thing - let me know if I'm wrong).
I found several posts that appear promising, however I was little confused about the details as I don't have much networking experience up to this point.

1) Is a reverse ssh connection the way to go? If I only wanted to do this on my home network I could just use ssh right, however in order to get around the router outside my home network the reverse ssh is necessary?
2) How do I handle changing IP address of my laptop?
I want to add service desk feature with my existing OpenNMS installation. For that I have already installed OTRS and SiT. But I gone through the OpenNMS wiki, and I can't find the OTRS plugins for the OpenNMS. The link provided in that site which is an SF link, also not working.
I would like to clone an existing desk top installation of Ubuntu Ultimate Edition and run it on my MacBook, can it work? What do I have to do to get it running there?
I had trouble connecting to a wireless network with openSUSE, so I tried the YAST network manager to see if that fixed it. Not only did it not fix it, but now I cannot connect to any network, wired or wireless. I tried to open the default network manager and it said "Network management disabled". How do I re-enable it?I also have set YAST settings back to their originals with no luck.
Can the fibre channel switch in the centOS5.3 cluster edition be switched for a regular router or hub? If so how would one do this? If not why does the switch have to be fibre channel?
I've recently decided to switch from KDE 4.6 to Gnome 3. I've always been a KDE user, since version 2, really. But I happen to really like the new look of Gnome. To me it looks more professional somehow. Very little in terms of distractions.On both my laptop and my desktop, I have installed the Gnome 3 packages through Packagekit and on both machines it runs nice and smooth. There is one difference, though. On the desktop machine, when I lock the screen, it goes to black instantly. On the laptop, it fades to black. I really like the look of the fading animation and I'd like the desktop machine to do the same, but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to do it.
The difference between both machines is that the laptop has an Intel graphics card whereas the desktop machine has an Nvidia 6800 GT, with the proprietary driver running. I followed Leigh's excellent guide to install that driver and it works like a charm. I do have desktop effects in KDE 4, so I know the driver is installed and running. I also am able to run hardware accelerated games in Wine without a problem.Being new to Gnome, especially Gnome 3, I have no idea where to look for these kinds of special effects. The System Settings program seems sort of Spartan and the gconf-editor doesn't show me anything that I can relate to this fading effect.
I already tried disabling the animations under gconf editor and it won't work.. I tried under metacity, gnome interface, apps, whatever.. and I can still see the black animated square when minimizing....
I have planned to do some interactive maps / animation interfaces. what is the best software i can use for this purpose? i think flash cs3 is ok in windows. but what about for linux?
The problem i am facing is that all other animations seem to work such as close animation or open animation but the minimize animation is not working.If i set magic lamp for minimize animation in Compiz settings it disappears in a second.
wants to do miniproject as part of the academic curriculum using Computer graphics on Linux using C or C++. Can any one direct me to a direction how i can proceed. I know basics of C and C++
I'm trying to create something like this:[URL]...when you press "fire" you see the graphic.My program already does all the math, but what i want is that animation of the projectile moving depending on the entered data.i really don't know how to accomplish that.I'm using Gtk#.what would i need to create something like that??
I was using Ubuntu 10.10.I upgraded to 11.04 through update manager.Though other functions are as per 11.04 the desk top has not changed to "Unity" desktop.
I'm using FC15 and Xfce4 desktop, as gnome3 does not work well with my ATI 5770HD graphics card and the proprietary catalyst 11.4 driver.When I start gnome-terminal from xfce, there is some (animation?) and the gnome terminal appears normal size then shrinks horizontally.Is there a way to disable this re-sizing ?
I just upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 and everything went fine. No problems other then there is no animation while booting. It just goes to the login screen (ugly tree ) . I have a feeling it has something to do with the nvidia card (fx5200) i am using the 173 driver. Because the screen switches resloutions and no Nvidia screen is showing as in the previous version 9.10. Any ideas on how to fix this?? I did a search and came up with no good answers yet. The Nvidia seems to be working fine everywhere else so far.
I recently performed a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10 on a new hard disk, and I've noticed that for whatever reason, the animation isn't working on the default Ubuntu splash screen on startup. It does work on the splash screen when I shut down, oddly enough.
I haven't tried to change my splash screen or messed around with resolution settings or anything like that, so I'm not sure what to check.
In an attempt to install Tupi, I downloaded the tar.gz from here. I would've loved to just install the .deb, but it seems that there's only an i386 deb available.
Unfortunately, I have no idea how to install the tar.gz package so I was hoping that someone can help me out with that.
Also, say I get this installed from the tar.gz, will updates for the program appear in my update manager?
I am running Ubuntu 10.10 and am animating with blender version 2.49b. whenever I try to add anything such as a cube or sphere, it always hangs and I can't close the window without logging out.
