Newb to Ubuntu


I am messing with the cube desktops and I can use Ctrl+Alt+Left Click and Drag to manipulate the cube when there is not a program open in the window, but if I do this with a program on the desktop, it restarts Ubuntu just like Ctrl+Alt+Backspace does... wtf?

nevermind, got it... you have to get rid of pretty much any CTRL+ALT Keyboard shortcuts

oops..nevermind. It started doing it again...wtf.

a few hours of searching and finally found it...it is a bug. You cannot use the cube AND have 3d windows on... wtf.

Dude, think of this as an opportunity to really get to know your favorite new free community coded distro - just hack the kernel and fix it.

More people would've been able to help you if you had specified that you had compiz fusion installed

I didn't see this thread earlier, but he did mention cube in his first post.
