[opensuse] kill & restart plasma to restore kpager with compiz
Listmates, I thought I would pass this little nugget along for all compiz-fusion users frustrated with the fact that kde4 kpager applet does not work correctly with compiz. The pager would work correctly only after plasma crashed and was forced to restart. After one of Patrick S. posts on the factory list concerning restarting plasma, I stumbled across a clean way to do it cleanly. The great side effect of manually restarting plasma-desktop is you get your pager back. You can either run the commands manually from the command line, or put it in a script (I used ~/bin/rsplasma): #!/bin/bash kbuildsycoca4 kquitapp plasma-desktop >/dev/null 2>&1 kstart plasma-desktop & >/dev/null 2>&1 exit 0 Now if the kde devs could just get pager to work right with compiz without this, we would be in good shape. -- David C.
