Dear CH, Thanks for filing this bug and the others. After I made the comment on this bug I went and read the others and tried Compiz with similar results. I found the task bar and menu bar panels somewhat distracting on top of the presenter-console. I moved the task bar up to the left and could then see the timer, etc. at the bottom of the presenter- console. Used it for a presentation and liked it that way. Two problems remain for me with the Compiz deployment:
1. I would like to be able to use the projector's 1360x768 with my laptop's 1024x768 but can't under Compiz because the horizontal combination totals 2384 > 2048 (driver limit). I suppose I could try over/under configuration instead of side-by-side, but the alignment will at best be awkward. (I can use 1360x768 beside 1024x768 in Metacity just fine under Ubuntu 9.04 with OOo and the presenter-console.) 2. Compiz leaves a lot to be desired as far as cleaning up the secondary display from dragged windows and intermittent corruption of the background on the primary display. I upgraded ATI driver from xorg-edgers driver-only PPA (Nov09 instead of Sep09) and it is somewhat better. -- presenter-console is displayed on same monitor as slideshow https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/473622 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
