I suppose I had better start with a confession:
Having been in dependency hell for about 2 months I have installed
UBUNTU 11.10 on my main machine
and am running Unity 2D on it. If one uses Avant Window Navigator one
can very nearly avoid all the
bumf that comes along with Unity. Still fairly cheesed-off with Unity,
GNOME 3 and the fact that there has been no consideration for those who
like GNOME 2 (after all, why not just keep it in the repositiories as an
option?).
Now, re my last post about keeping LC windows on-screen:
having posted the script that I made first of all, I decided that
putting the stack slap-bang, dead-centre
everytime it strayed slightly off-screen was pretty awful, so I changed
the code to this:
on moveStack
put the short name of this stack into THSTK
if the left of stack THSTK > (item 1 of the screenRect) then
set the left of stack THSTK to (item 1 of the screenRect)
end if
<snip>
end moveStack
and when I dragged my stack it froze the Ubuntu 11.10 interface
completely, disabled the mouse
and so forth; the only way out of this was either to jump on the button
on the front of the computer
or yank the power cable out from the back: neither what one might choose
in an ideal situation.
I don't have a desperate urge to try this out on either my PPC macMini
or the Windows XP running in a Virtual Box setup; however, I do wonder
whether the same sort of thing would happen.
