Re: Gnome language layouts, multiple desktops,

Still doesn't work for me.

This issue with Workspace Switcher and Compiz is indeed a bug and it
is marked for expiration in 29 days if no further info is given.

Workspace Switcher/compiz kills gnome pannel when attempting to switch

What doesn't work for you regarding what I posted? Dotan asked:

4) I cannot find where to configure a single desktop as opposed to the
two that Gnome gives me as default. Clicking Preferences from the
desktop pager applet does not give me an option to change the amount
of desktops, nor does anywhere else in the menus that I can find.
Googling leads me to believe that it _should_ be in the applet but it
is not. What am I doing wrong?


My instructions provide that information and it works (for me) on both
Ubuntu (Gnome) Intrepid and Hardy. Does that not work for you?

340061 provides no details (including which version of Ubuntu) and is a
duplicate of 155438.

155438 [Compiz - workspace switcher shrinks and workspaces do not work
corectly] involves an Compiz (perhaps) issue of multiple workspace rows
on the panel.


I can confirm on Kubuntu Hardy with Gnome that the user cannot
configure a single desktop with Compiz enabled. Disabling Compiz gives
me an option to select the amount of workspaces. With Compiz enabled,
even configuring 1 column and 1 row gives me two workspaces.
