okay thanks for the effort but that doesnt say anything about how to get the load style to change. i already read the user guide. its everywhere. everything that loads.

Mick meant that we need more info to help you. That link isn't supposed to be a solution, its a guide on how to get the best chance of help, just jump through the hoops!

Also, as its probably a graphics thing, the output of

Code: Select all

inxi -G

might be useful as well and possibly even a screenshot of what is happening.

ah well it looks like the effect of the application switcher but its everywhere. its on my menus when i scroll and its online. its on loading pages and its when i come back from sleep mode. its just odd. either way i appreciate you guys.

You have provided no information relevant to your issue.

Open a terminal and run this command and copy/paste the output here.

Code: Select all

inxi -F

Telling us your specs is irrelevant. All that matters is what the system sees.
That is why we require you to run specific commands.

You have a video/graphics problem, and we don't even know what your video card is.

thank you

okay i turned on wobbly windows effect. i dont know why it was doing this before hand. but now its not wobbling but its not doing the triangle thing anymore. odd. any ideas?

oem@RIOT-laptop ~ $ inxi -f

Sigh...

You gotta work with us here.

This is Linux not Windows.

Linux is case sensitive.

"inxi -f" is not "inxi -F".

I put it in a "code" box so you could copy/paste and get it right.

Please provide the information requested so we can assist you.

In the meantime turn off desktop effects and see if that helps.

Thanks
mick
