Linux Mint Forums

unfortunally i cant find such a docklet, i deactivated them all. Its still a Taskbar. I also tried Tint2 -> crashes on startup wbar -> basically unconfigurable and full of ugly eyecandy I think the easyest way is to simply kick cinnamon and go back to xfce, that has this functionality out of the box.

Thats a nice tool, optically i now have what i wanted. One issue so: Docky emulates a taskbar, it actually shows all currently running proramms. Is there a possibility to configure it that way that ONLY shortcuts are shown there? currenly i have both the taskbar fo cinnamon and docky showing me runn...

Hi is it possible to have a Windows XP like quick Launch bar? Something that i can set freel on any side of my Desktop? So far i only found the option for the Tastbar at the top or the bottom or both. And i also found that i can add Links to it, but unfortunally that does not fullfill my requirement...

As far as your display problems? No. Sadly there just aren't a lot of alternatives for Linux.

And How about some Systemwide Hotkey wich automatically load and execute a New Config file for my displaywishes?

Is there really noone here who can help me, or at least point me in the right direction?

As for the screen issues, all I can offer is sympathy. I have had similar experiences with linux hardware support in the past, and I only switched to linux permanently when I tested Mint 9 and found it worked with (nearly) all my hardware without all of those ridiculous geeky conf file tweaks (that...

Evolution is somewhat similar to Outlook, and that is why I chose it as my, "Preferred Email Program". Everyone is different, and many prefer Thunderbird. It's lightweight, but I prefer to have everything in one program instead of 5 or 6. I can manage my Contacts, My Calendar and My Tasks...
