KDE Desktop Cube with mouse

Is there any way to activate the desktop cube with the mouse left, right or middle click or any combination of a mouse click and keyboard keys like it does in Compiz? The custom shortcut apparently only allows keyboard keys.
Oh, and while I'm at it, is there a way to make the desktop cube switch animation use the same background that you set on the "Desktop Cube" options on the desktop effect options? It only shows a black background when you switch virtual desktops with the cube animation.

Hey there!

The most I can get with those settings are to change virtual desktop when the cursor touches the edges of the screen. What I asked was another thing... I'd like to activate the desktop cube (the one that's on System Settings -> Desktop effects -> All effects (tab) -> Desktop Cube) by using the mouse click instead (or in combination with keyboard keys, like in Compiz's Ctrl+Alt+Left Click). My question wasn't regarding the virtual desktop switching.

That does set a background to the desktop cube. However, it doesn't set any background when I switch virtual desktops with the Pager, or the desktop switch shortcut (Ctrl +F1, Ctrl + F2, etc), the background is black.

  • Entire desktop shifting with mouse use

    I have a powerPC g5 tower with a 23" cinemaHD monitor, running leopard.
    About a month ago while still on Tiger, my mouse behavior started acting weird. When I mouse around the screen, the desktop actually moves by 4-8 pixels or so. It's as if the desktop is 1920x1200 but the monitor itself is all the sudden 1915x1195. It's not just the background either - all the pixels on the screen shift, including the applications I'm running and the menu bar across the top of the screen. It's very annoying when any mouse work moves the screen around on you, even if it is only by a few pixels. I bought a new mouse and upgraded to Leopard - things I was planning to do anyway, and neither fixed the problem.
    Under system preferences, my monitor is correctly set to 1920x1200. If I change to another resolution, the problem is there at that resolution too. I'm sure it's a simple setting somewhere, but I sure as heck can't find it.
    Any help anyone?

    You have the magnification turned on.
    In Preferences, open Universal Access and see if you have zoom turned on there.
    Also in your keyboard and mouse in Preferences you may have the zoom with mouse turned on.
    That's all it is.

  • Can't select desktop items with mouse...

    Good day,
    I am having an issue with a G4 Quicksilver workstation at my office that is running OS 10.4.10. it seems that i can not use my mouse to select any items on my desktop. i can tab through all of the items, and my mouse is able to work the menus fine, but i cannot open or even select anything that is on the desktop, including my dock. has anyone else ever heard of such a problem, and if so, is there a simple fix for it?
    thanks in advance,
    cr

    Hi Chris,
    Try reinstalling the drivers that came with the mouse.

  • Desktop moves with mouse!

    A friend reported to me from work that when she mouses, the whole desktop on her computer (10.4.11, but not sure what model, maybe a G4 tower) moves with the mouse movement! Is this a known issue? Any solution?

    Hi there,
    It sounds as if she might have accidently enabled the zoom feature. This can be toggled on and off using the cmdoption8 combination or in the 'Universal Access' pane of System Preferences. The zoom level can be controlled with the cmdoption'=' or cmdoption'-' keyboard combinations.

  • Disable switching desktop OpenBox with mouse wheel

    How do i disable the option of switching desktops (1st and 2nd desktop) with the mouse wheel or the wheel in the touchpad? (using OpenBox with touchpad synaptics)

    remove this code from your rc.xml
    <mousebind button="Up" action="Click">
    <action name="DesktopPrevious"/>
    </mousebind>
    <mousebind button="Down" action="Click">
    <action name="DesktopNext"/>

    PS: don't forget to backup first.

  • Desktop Moving With My Mouse Movements!

    This is a weird one for me, as I've never seen it before.
    I booted up my Mac Mini this afternoon, and when I moved my mouse, my desktop moved with it! Kind of hard to describe, but whichever way I move the mouse then the whole desktop image moves with it, regardless of what I am doing.
    I have tried the Command Option P & R startup and looked in the system preferences, but I'm so far admitting defeat on this one!
    Any ideas?

    Hi Samsong-
    You have zoom enabled on the mouse.
    If you hold the control key while scrolling up or down is one way zoom becomes enabled and the mouse will do that. Try holding the control key down and scroll all the way out.
    Zoom can be configured in the mouse preferences.
    Luck-

  • Gnome Black Screen with Mouse Cursor after Login

    I am using Archlinux 64bit with a Gnome Desktop Environment. Everything was running normally uptill today. When i ran "sudo fc-cache", my system froze. I couldnt open any other app but i was able to access terminal. I restarted using "reboot" command. After that I was unable to log in to my desktop.
    The Gnome login screen comes and after entering the correct username and password, all I can see is a black screen with mouse cursor. I then started gnome manually with "startx" and it worked. But still I am unable to use normally (that is the graphical login). I reinstalled gdm but it didnt work. Please help me out.

    there are a lot of processess running... dunno killing which process will not cause a problem

  • Scrolling with mouse on pages create black and white lines,

    When scrolling with mouse, periodically the whole screen turns into black and white lines. Sometimes whole page, sometimes just pictures/side ads. If you continue to scroll it does go away but then you need to scroll back to where the lines started, its hard to explain, i have taken 1 photo of the problem but will take more photos as i can, i really enjoy how Firefox runs on my computer, it has always been the best browser for my needs. I did recently buy a new desktop, but it did it then also, so i removed it and tried running explorer and Google and i just don't like them, so i am hoping we can get this fixed.

    Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

    If there is a problem with scrolling on web pages then try to disable smooth scrolling.

  • [Solved] KDE Desktop Effects no longer working

    Hello,
    I just did an update, (I didn't think it was a major one, I don't recall seeing graphics update, though I'm not sure how to confirm - is there a way to see recently updated packages in yaourt?) and after a brief issue with powertop that was solved by a restart (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=179789 - it may be unrelated though) I found that when I restarted, KWin Crashed, and since then, my desktop effects are not working.
    I have gone to the KDE Desktop Effects Settings Menu, and under the advanced menu, set the compositing type back to OpenGL 3.1, clicked apply, and confirmed that I wanted to try it even though it had evidently crashed Kwin. I then received a message stating "21 desktop effects could not be loaded". When I clicked details, a popup window said:
    "For technical reasons it is not possible to determine all possible error causes.
    Desktop effect system is not running."
    For the record, I am on a Thinkpad X201 with intel graphics.
    Any ideas?

    Some Extra information:
    I just tried a restart, that didn't work.
    I then went back into effect settings, and saw that "enable effects at startup" was not checked. I also saw that under the advanced settings, Qt Graphics system was set to raster. Since I'm not sure which it was supposed to be on originally, but the current configuration wasn't working, I also set that to Native, and then clicked apply. KWin then crashed, here is the output:
    Application: KWin (kwin), signal: Aborted

  • XBMC/mplayer and KDE Desktop effects

    Hi,
    i have setup a arch based HTPC with XBMC on top of KDE, but there is one thing i were not able to resolve: The XBMC GUI and playing a video on it gets laggy as soon as i DISABLE the kde desktop effects. My system is i3/sandy bridge based with integrated intel graphics, vaapi installed.
    1. tried different playback settings within XBMC, same results
    2. as soon as i disable the kde desktop effects, xbmc becomes slow and laggy, even if i dont restart it, if i enable desktop effects its smooth again
    3. mplayer reacts the same way when used with -vo gl or -vo gl2, so it could be somehow opengl related. With -vo xv it runs smooth in both configurations.
    4. Cpu load is constantly <20%
    5. tried as root user, same results
    6. glxinfo reports direct rendering is enabled
    so any ideas how to resolve that problem? or how to find out whats going on?
    you may ask why i want to disable desktop effects, well with desktop effects on, videos run almost perfect, but sometimes there are smaller lags that, i guess, can be related to the desktop effects eating resources, so i want to try without them.
    here is the custom part of my xorg config, tearfree was needet to get a vsync-enabled video playback:
    #20-intel.conf
    Section "Device"
    Identifier "Intel Graphics"
    Driver "intel"
    Option "AccelMethod" "sna"
    Option "TearFree" "true"
    #Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
    #Option "AccelMethod" "xaa"
    EndSection
    Section "dri"
    Mode 0666
    EndSection

  • Natural Ergonomic Desktop 7000 with OS 10.8

    I recently plugged in my Natural Ergonomic Desktop 7000 wireless mouse and keyboard made by Microsoft into my new MacBook Pro Retina with OS 10.8.3. The extra and programmable keys on the keyboard no longer functioned.  These keys worked just fine on my iMac with the Snow Leopard operating system running.  The keyboard appears to be programmable in the system preferences under Microsoft Keyboard, but F1, for instance, says "Handled by Mac OS".  When I try to edit this, it just do anything when I click.  The mouse seems to work well, showing a diagram of the mouse and all the buttons light up when I push them, but the keyboard is not working properly. 
    Microsoft's website only offers software and drivers for up to Mac OS 10.7 for this wireless desktop system.  This "Intellipoint" software worked fine with my previous iMac, but when I try to install it on this new MBPr, the system says that I should not install "apps" from unidentified developers.  I thought microsoft was pretty well known and reputable.  Should I be concerned about installing this driver made for Mac OS10.7...and will it do anything helpful?
    Does anyone know how to get the full function out of this keyboard with OS 10.8?  I would like to be able to use all the F1-F~15 and the special programmable buttons 1-5.

    This is Gatekeeper, a new function in 10.8. You can change these settings by going to System Preferences>Security. Or just right click the installer and choose open, it bypasses Gatekeeper and allows you to run the installer.

  • How to remove a black border box that continously tabs to each field automatically till end of web page; restarts to top of page, cannot stop this box. Scroll bar cannot controlled with mouse, returns auto to top of scroll slide, never remaining at bottom

    how to remove a black border box that continously tabs to each field automatically till end of web page; restarts to top of page, cannot stop this box. Scroll bar cannot be controlled with mouse, scroll bar returns automatically to the top of scroll slide every time I move the bar to the bottom of the scale.  Also, there's a rectangular text box (with black background and white text) that is always on the desktop that emulates a typed text, HTML, or cmd function.

    The first two problems (box cycling from element to element on page, scroll bar returning to top) can be caused by a stuck (or defective) Tab key on the keyboard. Such damage can be caused by a liquid spill; just one tiny droplet is enough to short a wafer switch under one key.
    The last issue (black box, white text - sounds sorta like a debugger window) I haven't seen, but could be caused by something similar.
    To check for that, try using a different keyboard. If you're using a wireless keyboard, turn it off and see if the oddities stop.

  • M8530f desktop PC with a m2n78-la mother board doesn't see my drives

    i have a m8530f desktop PC with a m2n78-la mother board it doesn't see my drives for some reason. i thought it might be a bios problem. is there any way to fix this or do i need to get another board

    Before you begin, disconnect everything from the computer (USB devices, printers, floppy disks, and CD/DVD discs) but leave the mouse, monitor and keyboard connected. You already checked and made sure that the power and data cables have a good connection to your drives and the motherboard now go to your BIOS Setup (should be F10) and reset the BIOS to its' defaults (should be F5 and then press the enter key). Arrow over to the Main screen and the hard drive should be recognized. Exit BIOS and save the changes. The computer should load the Windows OS if it's installed on the hard drive. If you get into Windows, check the Device Manager to make sure that the drive is showing up there too. If the hard drive was not detected, after you save the changes and exit the BIOS, turn off the computer. Disconnect the power cord from the back of the PC then press the power button on the computer for 5 seconds. Reconnect the power cord and turn on the computer and see if it boots up.  If it still doesn't boot up, try a different SATA connection on the motherboard (one that hasn't been used). If that doesn't help, disconnect the Memory card reader connections inside the computer and try to boot again. If it still doesn't work and since you already tried a new hard drive, I would suspect a SATA controller/bus problem and you may need to install a SATA controller card to resolve the problem.

  • KDE desktop does not come up after log out

    I have updated KDE to the lastest version using the Arch packages.  It worked wonderfully the first time, all of my widgits were intact and my desktop was just as I had left it, custom background and everything. Then, however, I logged out to make sure Fluxbox worked.  Now, even after rebooting, the KDE desktop doesn't come up.  It will bring up Pidgin which was running before but the taskbar and all of the widgets are gone and it has this grey background that is the same as the one in the KDM.
    No errors are produced, although it does now ask for the password for a Wallet that "Plasma Desktop" wants to access.  I recognise the name of the wallet (kdewallet) and input the password correctly after this, two notifications pop up with informational thing.  One is about some indexing service being "rebuilt" for new features and the other is saying that it's falling back on a different sound output.  None of this seems to have an impact on the limited usability I have.
    Has anyone else expereinced this?  Are there any log files where errors would be outputted to?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    I have found the relevent messages.  They are at a pastebin. http://pastebin.ca/1522805
    I'm not entirely sure what is going on here.
    After the top line of that post, there are a LOT of errors related to "No block with decorrelation terms" in fact the vast majority of that file are those things.  All other "errors" are warnings related to my Fluxbox session which is working fine.
    Lines 1, 11 and 12 seem to be the most severe errors:
    [0xa2412b0] main input error: ES_OUT_RESET_PCR called
    "/usr/bin/dolphin(4560)" Error in thread 3049428752 : "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown - The name org.kde.nepomuk.services.nepomukstorage was not provided by any .service files"
    "/usr/bin/dolphin(4560)" Error in thread 3049428752 : "QLocalSocket::connectToServer: Invalid name"
    I have no idea where to even begin fixing them. However it is Nepomuk that comes up with the rebuilding message i mentioned in my previous post.

  • I want some KDE apps, but not the KDE desktop environment....

    I'm on a laptop running Arch (yay!) and I am wanting to install Amarok and KTorrent. However, I don't want the KDE desktop environment, KWin (I use fluxbox), or things like KDM (I use SLiM). Is there a package, like kde-base in Debian, that allows just essential Qt/KDE libraries for applications like Amarok and KTorrent?
    Thanks in advance.

    Assuming you have it installed,
    $ kcontrol
    or you can use kcmshell with the name of the options module you want to use, eg:
    $ kcmshell style
    to change the GUI theme.
