possible problem w/ autodetect netbook vs regular
Good evening,
In my testing I've been impressed w/ how Kubuntu Maverick is now autodetecting whether or not to present the plasma-netbook or plasma-desktop, virtual machines.* I am testing Maverick on both VM Workstation and VirtualBox with a Windows 7 host machine.* Both of my installs start up in 800x600 until I have install either vmware-tools or vboxadditions.* Since I'm at 800x600, I receive plasma-netbook and the machines look like my netbook. Any ideas on this? I can easily run plasma-desktop and/or change the start up to launch plasma-desktop instead, however I am then presented with a problem where the top menu portion disappears.* Does this make sense?

It's going just by resolution. I already talked to Jonathan Riddell about this (hit it a few weeks ago), and he said adding a check for "laptop-detect" would be needed. Figuring how to detect my new netbook (1366x768) is going to be *fun* too. > I can easily run plasma-desktop and/or change the start up to launch > plasma-desktop instead, however I am then presented with a problem where the > top menu portion disappears.* Does this make sense? As opposed to using System Settings? -- Mackenzie Morgan http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com apt-get moo -- kubuntu-devel mailing list kubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-devel |
