Compiz query about taskbar
I'm not really one for geegaws and baubles but thought I would give Compiz
Fusion a try on my laptop. I don't use the lappy much and tend to use it
for trying stuff out.
Just upgraded it to Hardy(Kubuntu), without issue and installed Compiz.
All working fine, looks quite impressive if you like that sort of thing (I
might leave it on to try and convert people who are that way inclined lol)
I can see some elements of it that might actually be useful except one thing
would drive me round the twist, and I am damned if I can see a way to stop
it.
When Compiz is enabled, is there a way to only show the windows from the
current Desktop in the taskbar?
I always have 4 desktops, with quite a lot of stuff open, in kwin I always
have it set that way. Starts to defeats the object of separate desktops if
your taskbar gets cluttered.
Cheers
David

I do not use kde, but have toyed with it at times. I seem to recall
that being a kde setting, not a compiz one. Try looking through the
kde control panel...
