Ubuntu :: Multiple Workspaces Don't Function On 9.04?

Aug 12, 2010

Multiple workspaces don't seem to work on this computer in Ubuntu 9.04, though they have in virtually every other distribution (including Ubuntu 8). The relevant specs of this computer:

* 2.0 GHz Pentium 4
* 512 MB RDRAM (arrrggghhh!)
* ATI Radeon 7500 64 MB Graphics Card

I've tried other steps, including adding the Workspace Switcher applet. Indeed it is present. However, clicking on another workspace does absolutely nothing, and "sending" a window to, say, Workspace 3, just makes it disappear. Likewise, CompizConfig Settings Manager seems to be useless in this situation too. I have had success with multiple virtual desktops in almost every other distribution of Linux on this computer, usually right out of the box.

Programming :: Passing Data From Interrupt Handler Function To Tasklet Function?

May 18, 2010

I am doing some Linux kernel programming for my research project. I need to record the timestamp (by using cpuid and rdtsc) when an interrupt handler (top half) is first invoked. Due to the time critical nature of the problem itself, I have to do the timestamping inside the interrupt handler itself (the first operation when the handler is called). However, I understand that tasks that are not so time critical should be deferred to a tasklet function (bottom half) for processing because other interrupts are disabled in a (top-half) interrupt handler. I am currently out of idea on how I can pass the timestamp information that I have obtained in the interrupt handler to the corresponding tasklet function.

OpenSUSE :: Get Function Set_magic_quotes_runtime() To Function On The Newer Versions?

Mar 30, 2011

I'm currently using OpenSuse 11.1 web server. This is bad since 11.1 is no longer supported. the reason why I am using it is because Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() was no longer being used. (so I was told)

That being said, is there a way to get Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() to function on the newer versions of OpenSuSE?

General :: Write Script To Use Function And Still Keep Function Active?

Feb 21, 2010

the function terminates if no key is pressed for 10 consecutive seconds. I tried using the -t option as suggested in some forums, but my version of showkey doesn't have the option of changing the timeout. The options I get are:

-h --helpdisplay this help text
-a --asciidisplay the decimal/octal/hex values of the keys
-s --scancodesdisplay only the raw scan-codes
-k --keycodesdisplay only the interpreted keycodes (default).

Is it possible to write a script to use this function and still keep the function active until an interrupt is recieved?

Ubuntu :: Seperate VNC Workspaces

Sep 30, 2010

I have VNC set up on my desktop. I would like to set it up so that I can sit on my desktop and do things while someone else connects on VNC on one of the other workspaces and do things. Is this possible? I know it sounds weird.

Ubuntu :: Alt-Tab And Workspaces Not Working

Oct 11, 2010

I recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop. I've got access to both the Netbook Edition and the Desktop Edition, so I tried booting into the Desktop Edition since I prefer to use this.

Within it, I cannot use Alt-Tab to move between multiple windows. I don't have access to moving between workspaces; rather weirdly, I can move a window to a different workspace by right clicking on the application and selecting to move it to a different workspace but I cannot use Ctrl-Alt-Right or Left to move between workspaces, nor can I use Ctrl-Alt-Shift-Left or Right to move a window from one workspace to another.

I have checked the Keyboard Shortcuts under the System->Preferences side. Alt-Tab, Ctrl-Alt-Right/Left and Ctrl-Alt-Shift-Right/Left are all set as the commands for Moving between Windows using the popup window, moving to the right/left workspace and moving a window to the right/left workspace respectively.

I've seen a lot of people saying that they have problems when they've got compiz installed and alt-tab causes problems with this, but I don't have compiz installed.

Since I used sudo apt-get upgrade -d from my old 10.04 Netbook Edition, am I missing packages to correctly run the Desktop Edition?

Note: Within the Netbook Edition, I can use multiple workspaces and Alt-Tab does work, but the UI is very slow and causes the system to lag whenever I open an application.

Ubuntu :: Can't Name Workspaces With Compiz Enabled?

Apr 8, 2010

I had named all my workspaces earlier today, and it was great help in organizing my workflow. However, I went to turn on some compiz effects (to improve the visual ergonomics of my work environment), and now I notice workspaces are acting a bit strange.I can no longer drag a window onto one of the workspace boxes in the bottom right to move the window. Also, if I left click the workspaces pane and go into properties, I can now only change the rows and columns, not the workspace names. This is a bit strange, and I see no reason that enabling compiz should cause this kind of problem.I can right click a title bar and send the window to a different workspace that way, but because they're not named, it's hard for me to organize my desktop this way

Ubuntu :: Why Can't Drag Windows To Other Workspaces

Jul 2, 2010

So I upgraded from Ubuntu 9.10 to 10.4, and the first thing I notice is that I can't drag the windows to other workspaces except from the small box down on the left, which is too small and annoying for me, I want to drag the window from the title bar. I can't find where to change that in the system, does anyone know how?

Ubuntu :: Files On Desktop Same In All Workspaces?

Aug 1, 2010

I normally don't switch between workspaces. In older versions I had done it just to try it out. And the files that were on the desktop in Workspace #1 were not there in any of the other Workspaces, but now in 10.04 they are. Is this the way it should be? Or is there something I need to set to have a clean desktop in the other Workspaces?

Ubuntu :: Switch Workspaces In Sauerbraten (and Others)?

Oct 27, 2010

Switching workspaces in Sauerbraten
just love the game, I play when things are quiet on the system. but I can not figure out to swap workspaces. the ctr-alt-right/left doesn't work in Sauerbraten. I run it in it's own workspace, but when I need to change to the other workspace with all my "work" apps I have to exit the game (sometimes right in the middle of a roll) and then I can switch to the work workspace

needless to say, in the middle of lost, level 9 or any others. it's a bummer to have to quit out to deal with a 30 second issue.

Ubuntu :: Accidentally Hid Or Deleted Workspaces?

Just like the title said, I was fooling around with different workspaces - seeing if I could close a program in one workspace while working in another - and I seem to have either deleted or hidden all of my workspaces!I've already tried the gconf commands and they don't seem to work at all.I'm running 11.04.TYOK... a quick update. I can get to my other workspaces using ctr+alt+ right arrow, so the workspaces are still there, I've just hidden or removed the switcher applet!

Ubuntu :: Reduce Number Of Workspaces Through Terminal?

Aug 21, 2010

I tried to check how many workspaces my desktop could have at once, and it got stuck at 36. Now i can't reduce the number. When I click the workspace switcher, and press "preferences", the preferences screen flickers like crazy, and I can't change it. The window title bars and borders are altso gone, but gnome is running. I don't have compiz running.

Is there any way of reducing the amount of workspaces, through gconf, or terminal?
