| GeorgeJ | Hello | 08:53 |
|---|---|---|
| GeorgeJ | I'm having some issues with Unity on a new ubuntu install. The ctrl+alt+up/down do not work for switching workspaces. And ctrl+alt+left/right bring up a non-themed window for switching workspaces. How could I get the normal behavior again? This is a fresh install of ubuntu, and I've got this issue since the first boot. | 08:53 |
| GeorgeJ | Clicking the "Workspaces" icon on the taskbar does bring up the workspaces, just that the keybinds do not work | 08:56 |
| GeorgeJ | Also, Alt+tab doesn't seem to work as intended either | 09:03 |
| GeorgeJ | Neither does window snaping/auto resizing. What could be wrong? Unity seems to be broken for me, on a fresh Ubuntu 11.10 install | 09:24 |
| kamstrup | GeorgeJ: are you running unity2d or unity3d? | 10:06 |
| GeorgeJ | It's a fresh install of Ubuntu 11.10. So unity2d I would guess | 10:07 |
| GeorgeJ | I have not installed compiz or anything else | 10:07 |
| GeorgeJ | No keybinds seem to work apart from the "windows key" | 10:09 |
| GeorgeJ | Ctrl+Alt+Numpad also does not work | 10:09 |
| GeorgeJ | I've tried puring unity and installing it again, unity --reset, nothing works | 10:09 |

| GeorgeJ | Oh, if it helps. It all worked on the live cd. However, once Ubuntu was installed, Unity broke. Could this perhaps be due to updates? | 10:50 |
| GeorgeJ | http://askubuntu.com/questions/70223/no-window-snapping-on-fresh-install seems to have a simmilar problem. I also have an nVidia video card. | 10:51 |
| GeorgeJ | How could I check what unity I'm running? | 10:59 |
| GeorgeJ | I require no fancy effects. Just want Unity to be able to handle my workspaces. Could this be a keybinding issue? | 11:05 |
| kamstrup | GeorgeJ: you can run this in a terminal: "ps aux | grep compiz" | 11:53 |
| kamstrup | if you get more than one line then it is unity3d | 11:54 |
| kamstrup | else u2d | 11:54 |
| GeorgeJ | kamstrup: Sorry, was away. compiz is not running | 13:09 |
| GeorgeJ | Is that the problem, do I need unity3d for those effects? | 13:11 |
| GeorgeJ | But it is started, hmmm. Something's odd here | 13:15 |
| GeorgeJ | Compiz is complaining that it canot find GLX, and I get: "Compiz (opengl) - Fatal glXCreateContext failed" | 13:26 |
| GeorgeJ | I get this while running unity --replace | 13:26 |
| kamstrup | GeorgeJ: sounds like you may not have the drivers working? | 13:44 |

| GeorgeJ | kamstrup: Yeah, I'm runing optimus | 14:32 |
| GeorgeJ | Trying to get it working now | 14:32 |
| kamstrup | GeorgeJ: ah... optimus is causing some odd troubles | 14:50 |
| kamstrup | GeorgeJ: i have it here as well | 14:50 |
| kamstrup | GeorgeJ: my solution was to disable optimus in the bios and either run solely on the integrated (intel) or discrete nvidia | 14:51 |
| GeorgeJ | kamstrup: I managed to fix it. I installed irnohide and disabled the nvidia driver | 14:51 |
| GeorgeJ | And I enable nvidia on demand | 14:51 |
| kamstrup | GeorgeJ: ok, cool :-) | 14:51 |
| GeorgeJ | I can't disable from bios since I dualboot, and sometimes game in window | 14:51 |

| beevvy | Hi all. How do I set global menu for a Qt app in Unity? I tried to do this on Oneiric but usual parentless QMenuBar which works well on OS X didn't work here. Currently if any of the app's windows besides the one which owns the menubar has focus, there is no global menu at all. | 20:28 |
