Ubuntu :: KK Minimised Windows Disappear

Feb 22, 2010

A google search on this problem (minimised windows disappear) shows a number of simple solutions. None of them work on my system: KK, Kubuntu, 64 bit.

The most often given advice is:" expect your taskbar is missing the "Window List" applet.To add it: Right-click on an empty area of the taskbar, choose "Add to panel", scroll down and add "Window List". "When I click on an empty area of the taskbar I see no option to 'Add to panel' The options are:

Add widgets (meaning unknown to me)Add Panel (which is NOT 'Add to panel'). This option does not appear to have any visible or useful result.

Ubuntu :: Windows Do Not Disappear

Jul 1, 2010

I just upgraded to ubuntu 10.04.Update worked well. But now the windows do not close properly, but remain as an inactive background display.As a side note, there's no startup screen, but just some screen garbage, as if an incorrect video driver would have been used.When I do move windows, their shade remains in the background, filling the background with garbage.

Ubuntu :: Windows Disappear Instead Of Minimizing

Jun 4, 2010

I'm running Kubuntu, updated to 10.04. After working OK, today Windows started disappearing whenever I click to minimize them. They're still running, but I have to go to System Monitor, locate the program in the list and click "Show Window." That's a nuisance.

I think this began after I tried to move panel icons to the right with an adjustable spacer. I've hunted all over the place for some setting to get windows to operate properly. The "Window Behavior" item in System Settings doesn't have anything. I removed the spacer and that didn't do anything, either.

Ubuntu Installation :: Program Windows Disappear After A Second

Jun 6, 2010

I upgraded to 10.4 netbook remix on my Asus N10 with an Nvidia card. I normally don't use the card and to get rid of troubles don't install the driver. After update something went wrong with the driver and I can't fix it. When the PC finished his boot het ask to give the password for the default key ring as usual but the window disapears before i can change anything. So this one is no too bad as my password is very easy and I can do the job with switching windows and keying very fast the pwd.

But try to read your evolution mail in these circumstances. I tried to start in low graphics mode but didn't help. Finaly I installed a fresh version on a separate partition and asked to copy my Evolution and Firefox documents. He didn't, dn't know why and tryed twice. So far my fresh installation works well but I lost my mails and shortcuts. So.... I think the easiest would be to work from the new installation as on the old one even the terminal window disapears.

Ubuntu :: Application Windows Just Disappear Off Screen After A Random?

Jan 27, 2010

Have had 9.10 running for a while with no problems. Not long ago upgraded 1GB RAM to 2GB so I could run VirtualBox better. All worked fine until a few days ago, I ran the normal system update. Since then, all application windows just disappear off screen after a random? period of time.

I.e. I tried to check Software center and the window closed after getting to 5% download. Just tried the System download manager which got about 8 files into an update before logging off desktop and taking me to log in screen. I just tried Firefox and the toolbar icon was displayed while it was attempting to load, but then that disappeared.

Ubuntu :: Automatic Right Clicking / And Windows Disappear When Minimized

Jan 30, 2010

i don't know what happened, I was doing the ctrl+alt+fn thing to pan around my desktops, and i think i somehow assigned the mouse to automatically right click on its own whenever i move it or anything. This is really messed up. It's like a virus. Just writing this the right click window has come up about 20 times and there's now a dozen new folders on my desktop. How do I fix this? How do I go into controls and stuff?

Ubuntu :: Minimizing Windows Makes Completely Disappear

Nov 18, 2010

When I minimize windows they completely disappear. Doesn't matter if its a program or my home folder, anything I open disappears when its minimized.I can run the system monitor and check running processes and they are still running. I just cant see them. All I can do is kill them with the system monitor.I can log on as another user and they work fine. It's just in one account. Is there a way to fix this, or to completely reset my desktop to the default settings? I know it's something I did but I can't find out where to fix it.

Ubuntu :: Close - Maximize - And Minimize Windows And The Application Title Bar Disappear

Jul 3, 2010

I am using GNOME Ubuntu 64 bit Lucid Lynx with Cairo Dock, Compiz Fusion, Screenlets

Sometimes when I start up linux the buttons to close, maximize, and minimize windows and the Application title bar disappear. Restarting usually fixes the problem.

Do you have any ideas why this would happen? Is there a command that will restart gnome without having to restart the computer?

Debian Multimedia :: 8.1 Cinnamon - Windows And Parts Of Panel Disappear

Sep 2, 2015

I installed a fresh new Jessie (8.1) with the Cinnamon environment a few days a go, and yesterday I started seeing a strange issue seemingly happening at random.

I'm not sure what I do to cause this, but every few hours all the text and some of the icons (launcher, notifications and some applications) on the panel disappear. Most icons in the menu also vanish.

I've just noticed that some windows also disappear, but instead of showing the window behind them, I see my background image (see attached image).

I can't interact with windows which I can't see, but I can move and resize them (they have no border to grab, but alt+middle mouse works).

I can get around the issue by restarting Cinnamon (Alt+F2, r), but that works only part of the time.

Dmesg shows nothing (most recent message was plugging in my mouse & keyboard).

I'm running this on a Lenovo X201 (which uses Intel HD graphics QM57) and an external monitor (dual monitor configuration)...

OpenSUSE :: Gnome Minimised Apps

Dec 25, 2010

Hi

I'm using Gnome 2.3 under 11.3 x64.

Whenever I minimise an app, it disapperas from the taskbar. I've fixed it by installing the window selector; however, it only works for apps running in my main monitor. Anything on the external monitor doesn't show.

How do I fix this?

And a Merry Christmas to all!

SUSE :: Panel To Display Minimised Window

Feb 5, 2010

I've been experimenting with the system and as these things go I've done something and I can't undo it through lack of understanding. I've managed to disable the display of minimised windows in the panel at the bottom of the screen. To compensate I'm using a Widget which allows me to get back to the window as I need it. But I'd prefer to be able to simply click on the panel.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: From 9.10 > 10.04, Where Did This Function Disappear To?

Jan 11, 2011

For quite a few Ubuntu versions now, if I ever wanted to save a ..... clip, I just went to the file system's /tmp folder and did a cut'n'paste of the buffered file. Now I have upgraded to 10.04 it seems .flv's are no longer buffered in /tmp.

Where have they gone? Or is this function/ability 'no longer available' for some obscure and possibly political reason? I do get the feeling that, whatever the reason, this is a retrograde step not in keeping with the Ubuntu philosophy.
