when i minimize a window it disappears....
anyone know how i can get em to show again?
(minimize to taskbar instead of goin AWOL)
using Suse Pro 9.1 w/KDE 3.2.1
when i first installed windows would minimize to the taskbar...
but i started tweaking on the taskbar and now they just go bye bye :lol:
alt+tab?
meh, i'm gonna' have to reboot and start up linux now, 'cos my brain ain't working.
Not really a kde user either. But it's alt-tab nevertheless.
thnx snny, i'll give it a shot when i boot back into linux :)
Too bad SuSe 9.1 is so oriented towards KDE.
Gnome is better, I think, but you gotta fiddle with it to get it to work as well as KDE does directly after you've installed it. And the 9.1 disc comes with 2.4 too, you gotta get 2.6 elsewhere.
It'd be cool if we could get a new version of ximian-gnome, didn't novell buy that or something? Anyone?
blah.....teh alt + tab is for switching windows....just like in windows :blink:
ok i just confused myself even :P :lol:
what i meant was open windows wont minimize to the tray...
like in VB's and 4play's screenys in the other thread
see theirs has shit in the tray, mine dont :P
they stay open until i close em, but dont show anywhere :huh:
do you mean you accidently removed the part of the taskbar that stores all the open windows when you close them ?
if so right click the task bar customize and see if there is an option to add it back. happened to me before and it was easy to add back if i remember.
yeah, but damned if i can find it again :lol:Quote:

-edit- i just found it :P
ffs if maybe i quit thinking like a n00b.... :lol:
Ooops, thought you had removed that on purpose and wanted to find what you had running without it.
D'oh.
whats the differ between Gnome and KDE
and
is suse pro 9.2 easy to use, especially comparing to mandrake 10.0
i like it but i guess its really something you'll have to see for yourselfQuote:

i still might try some other distros
until i have i cant really say whats easier
(this is my first round with linux)
Visually I usually prefer gnome, it often has a darker, cleaner and more minimalistic feel to it IMO, and I prefer the customization options in gnome, tho' you can change either of them beyond recognition.Quote:
