fusion-icon kde desktop pager [Solved]

[echo6]

Whenever compiz-fusion starts it adds another 4 kde desktop pagers. e.g. 1-16

Any ideas?!

Right click and choose "configure desktops". Then set the number to 1. Adjust the number of desktops in the compizconfig settings menu instead.

Excellent thanks, I found the setting within compiz..eventually.

I had the same problem before, glad I could help. Sorry I couldn't tell you where in the compizconfig settings menu to change the # of desktops, but I couldn't remember.

The only problem I have now is making the change persistent...I keep having to reset it.

About it resetting... In the backend menu, there's an option for integration with kde or gnome, or a separate flat-file. I noticed that when I used the integration with kde (I have no idea about the gnome one - I don't use gnome), I kept losing my settings. I don't know if that's what your problem is. I'm not sure if you meant that the desktops in kde were being reset, or if it was in compizconfig. Try setting it to a flat-file if it isn't already. That could be the problem.

Hope this helps.

I'm not sure I follow when you say flat-file?

I have the followin in my config

Code: Select all

toshiba ~ # cat /etc/compizconfig/config
[kde_session]
backend = kconfig
integration = true
plugin_list_autosort = true

[gnome_session]
backend = gconf
integration = true
plugin_list_autosort = true

[general]
backend = ini
plugin_list_autosort = true

I'm actually having a problem with python and compiz-fusion my self, and I can't run compiz-config. http://www.sabayonlinux.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=10633
So I'm doing this from memory now. I also don't even know where the config file is.

When you open compiz-config, to the bottom-right, there is a thing that says backends & configuration, or something to that effect. When you click on it, it allows you to import and export the config file, and under that, it has a drop-box thing with three options. The first is for gnome, the second is flat-file (I don't know what that means either), and the the third is for kde. If yours is set to kde or gnome, turn it to flat-file and see if that helps. If it doesn't, then I have no idea what the problem is.

hope this helps
