Re: [opensuse] Don't show windows from all desktops

Hello listmates,

I completed an upgrade installation from openSUSE 11 to openSUSE 11.1. So far, I am not overly happy with KDE 4.1, lots of minor issues, which are making my life difficult. No sound being one of them. KDE complains that my sounds card does not work. My built-in webcam (which worked under openSUSE 11) no longer works. Finally some peace and quiet around here without having to here all that noise blaring from your speakers ((-: Joke aside, you didn't post the specs of your sound card. I would check pulseaudio and make sure you belong to the audio group. Confirm that sound does _not_ work for root, then we know you have a sound

Plus it also has the advantage that you can compare configs. Of course, if you are tight for space, that wouldn't help.

Another thing is that with KDE 3, I could tell the window manager not to display windows from all desktops in the task bar. With KDE 4, I can't find this setting. Does anybody know where it is, or is this something I will have to learn to live with? That setting should be there somewhere 'cause I know I tried it but no longer use it since I have less than 8 'windows' open on 8 desktops. Persevere and you will be rewarded. Your best bet is to right click on the taskbar and check all the settings. I'm not sure whether the new control centre has it in there.
