http://crunchbanglinux.org – Hello as I mentioned in my presentation I'm currently trying to configure Maya on Statler.After some time spent studying/configuring Openbox (it's AMAZING) I've got almost everything set up correctly except for one small (BIG) thing: everytime I open an editor or other subwindow (ie Hypershade, Render View) and press the Minimize button everything gets minimized, even the MAIN Maya window!!!From what I could understand this is normal OB behaviour: if you run, for instance, Geany and open the Color Chooser... once you try to minimize it you get also Geany itself minimized!I spent (HowTos)

I'm still pretty new to Ubuntu, so please bear with me, and explain things like you're talking to a small child.

When I hit minimize on my last open window in Ubuntu 11.10, everything freezes. I can't open a terminal window via Ctrl Alt T, I can't hit the superkey and open Unity, I can't click any of the icons on my panel.

Hello! I'm trying Ubuntu 12.04 beta2 64 bit. It works really good! But I have some questions and small problems. I'm going to open different threads to discuss about them.

Well. When I try to restore a window that I have minimized, I obtain a blank view.

I can reproduce this problem if I open more than one window (for example Firefox, Terminal and Nautilus).

Geany is a fast and lightweight text editor and IDE for Linux. Geany 1.22 was released recently with many new features.

Geany comes with a few plugins installed by default, however there are many other useful plugins maintained by community.

I actually want to change the default text editor on my Ubuntu 12.04 from nano to Geany. When I used this code:

update-alternatives --config editor

I am not sure whether you have faced this.

Ubuntu(or maybe just Unity) lags whenever I minimize a window when there's no other opened window(others are minimized).

I faced this problem after I install Ubuntu Tweak 0.7, Conky, OpenJDK 7, IcedTea 7 (if it does matter)

There's no problem to:

show and hide windows spread window open and close window

I have set window minimize animation as Fade 220ms and Animation Time Step as 1 in CCSM b

Hi, I'm currently trying out window managers. I was using fluxbox. I'm checking out Openbox and it seems very powerful and nice, but I can't seem to find any documentation I can actually understand. I'd like to switch to it though for a few days and try it out. One huge thing missing with a blank configuration is a bottom dock/menu thing.

Installed geany has no options 27 weeks 16 hours ago

I'm new to geany IDE. I installed geany from ubuntu software centre, and the window has no options other than opening a new file. I can't file any preference, tools option too for configuring.

I heard it is a full fledged IDE. Also, from the screenshots available from the software center, it seems my Geany installation is missing almost everything.
