desktop pager settings grayed out

Post by THUFIR »

can you change the desktop pater settings to display 3 or 4 desktops instead of 2? That option is grayed out :(


thanks,

Try running "obconf" and then Desktops -> Number of desktops.

thanks, obconf did the trick. In ubuntu I had to install it first, though. It did generate some errors when run from the command line, for what it's worth.

Why two different ways to configure a panel/applet, though?



thanks,

Number of desktops is panel-independent. If you switch to KDE and change the number to 10, then it will also change in LXDE.

You should have use your current window manager configurator. LXDE default WM is OpenBox, so I suggested using it.
