KDE funnies after ditching fluxbox...
 

So with 13.0 I compiled the fluxter pager and it come back with 'unable to connect to server' when bringing up fluxbox...

I noticed that in KDE there is a nice pager that after some playing fits quite well into an enlarged taskbar, and began to set up my application to remember where it is in the pager, and the size/position of windows...

Now, I have it set so that only minimised windows show as icons in the remainder of the taskbar, but I have noticed when I start up my app that all the windows show as minimised even though they are not.... when I click through each page of the panner they begin to dissapear and eventually I am just left with a couple that once I click them (even though there already maximised) they dissapear and I am left with a clean taskbar..

After this minising the window works as it should.

The process I have spawns new processes, generally one in each pager window, and each process spawns multiple windows within that page window, so I have a lot of minimised stuff to go through!

This is compounded by the fact that I have selected to only show minimised windows from that 'screen', which doesnt seem to work, unless of course the panner is still working on one screen, and not taking into account the virtual panner windows...

Any pointers much appreciated..

Cheers,

Mark

Were you using KDE with fluxbox?
Also, if you create or have a second user, you can copy the settings for kde in $HOME-new-user/.kde to your .kde file.

No, I've only ever used fluxbox... well that's not true, I originally used fvwm, then fvwm2 then fluxbox, but I know what you mean not kde and fluxbox together...

What window manager is kde using? The default or fluxbox? It should be in the control panel.

I'll check the default I guess.. I have not changed anything...

Sorry I have to be a little lost trying to find it in the new look kde... but anyway, it's a fresh install and I am starting kde from a .xinitrc file so I am confident that kde is the only window manager running.

The only thing that crossed my mind is that it looks like in kde it is one screen, with the pager creating virtual screens, whereas I think in fluxbox its actually creating seperate screens....
