OT: How to start an application on another desktop?
Hi List! With KDE1, I was able to specify a target desktop when starting an application using --startondesktop. Does anyone know if something like this is possible with KDE2/3, too?

You can use "kstart --desktop 2 app_name" kstart --help for details If you have trouble with some non-kde apps, try using xwininfo to get the window ID/title, then specify it with the -window option. ie. kstart --window "XMMS" --desktop 2 xmms all the best, Robert_L On Friday 17 May 01:21, Cajus Pollmeier wrote: > Hi List! > > With KDE1, I was able to specify a target desktop when starting an > application using --startondesktop.

Xinerama not recognized by KDE
Hi, I'm using woody with KDE 2.2.2. I have configured XFree86 Version 4.1.0.1 to work with two Graphiccards in "Xinerama-Mode". After installing the latest kdelibs3 with apt-get I tried to use it with KDE but unfortunately it didn't Work. After starting kdm I have the login Window on one Monitor and the other Monitor only shows a naked X. After logging in KDE is started on the one screen. On the other screen appears a second KDE window. I can use the mice and the keyboard on both Monitors but each Monitor seems to show a single Session. It is not possible to Move Windows from one Monitor to the other. I can configure each Monitor (kicker, background, wallpaper, etc.) But I am logged in as the same user. I didn't see or use Xinerama on KDE before but I think that's not the right behaviour?! The other problem is that I can't use the Option "activate Xinerama" in "Window Behaviour". That means I can see the Options, but I can't use them. Are there some other Options that have to be activated? Are there some Hardwarelimitations? the second Graphiccard is running with a "vesa" Driver 'cause I didn't find a s3-Driver in XFree86 4.1.0.1. Thanks for all Answers and/or Hints where I can find the Answer. Marcel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You will probably find that this is due to the QT 2 libraries are not compiled with Xinerama support. This probably will not be changed in woody. As for sid, QT3 (and KDE3) is currently compiled with Xinerama on i386. When KDE3 enters sid, the optio should work. You may be able to get Ivan to enable Xinerama in Qt 2 for sid, but it may not be worth the hassle when KDE is just around the corner. - -- David Pashley [EMAIL PROTECTED] Nihil curo de ista tua stulta superstitione. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE85QnzYsCKa6wDNXYRAqfKAKCN6/mFMu3a8Bm9d1OSRttvIIjIMQCcDYtE uqbdlQ6CV2IfJ9hoGyaRtI4= =AUxN -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Menu items
OK, this seems like a simple question but I can't find it addressed anywhere in the documentation. Is there any way to add a ment item to the KMenu besides using the cumbersome KMenuEditor? I can drag a file from the file manager to kicker but I can't figure out any way to drag it to the menu. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

However from what I have read from complaints on debian-devel it may be up to a month before it gets installed due to the fact the packages will be marked NEW. I will see if I can convince a ftp admin to install them sooner though. Chris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
