[Bug 876198] Re: When switching workspaces with rotate/cube previous Ws contents are momentarily displayed

2012-02-11 Thread Maximinus
I don't have the time (nor the knowledge/skills, though if I had even more time, I could probably fix that...) to fork Ubuntu - or even to try to fix Compiz at this stage. My laptop (my primary machine) has just broken again (due to flawed power socket design), so I may well end up doing a clean

It seems that the developer I was communicating with was mistaken as to the cause of this issue - and he's not really supposed to use work time to support things like the cube. The root of the problem here seems to be that Canonical/Ubuntu developers have decided that, even though their new pet

It seems that an updated version of Compiz has hit the proposed repos now, but it doesn't seem to contain this fix after all. It does, however, contain the fix for the focus issue - so the correct window is now focussed when the rotation is finished. I found that Update Manager didn't want to

I've heard that it'll probably be this week, but I'm not sure whether that was for it to hit -updates or -proposed (it doesn't seem to be in either at the moment) - if it has to go through -proposed, I'm not sure how long that'll take... but those of us who want to will be able to install it from

A fix has actually been developed, and after what looks like a pretty thorough testing phase, it's been merged - I imagine the holiday period slowed things down a little (though this would ideally have all been sorted before the holidays) - but it was a complicated issue to fix, with nearly 2000

Sam's fix is awaiting review at the moment - here's hoping it doesn't take long. I'm not sure how long we should expect to wait, but in the mean time, I think we can stop posting me too posts (incidentally, there's a perfectly good thing at the top of the page to flag it as affecting you - it's

I guess I really should mention that I grabbed and installed Erik's deb, and it started working, even without the change to the Defaults. Thanks, Erik, for supplying the deb. -- modifying PAM configuration could break gksu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/86843 You received this bug notification

I've been wanting a solution for this for some time, since it would be nice to be able to not only log in by swiping my finger, but get to the network management dialog with it - since I use my laptop at home and at work, needing to change network profiles between the two. I've just been looking
