openoffice presenter issues
by Kevin Kempter
Hi all;
I'm running Fedora10 and KDE 4.2 on a laptop with an Nvidia card and I run 2
displays via twinview.
When I try and run the slideshow I get a scrollbar on the opposite display as
I have openoffice presenter running on but nothing else, plus at that point the
display is stuck in presenter mode so I cant stop the presentation (which I
cant see) or exit the program.
Thoughts ?
Thanks in advance...

slow desktop and a sometimes total refresh of desktop
by Peter Teuben
I use Gnome.
Sometimes I get this total refresh of the desktop. I have 6 workspaces,
and it's not uncommon that I have 40-50 windows running, so a refresh
leaves me sitting idle for about 30 seconds.
In addition, it now happens sometimes in Fedora-9 that switching
workspaces has become VERY slow, but I seem to be able to fix that by
closing an application. gimp or gqview are two I often leave running and
can dismiss.
I did instal1l Fedora-10 but suspend didn't work out of the box, so I'll
have to fix that and come back to it. But I'm wondering if this is
something others have seen
I think the refresh has been in FC7 as well, the slow switching is
something new in 9 i believe. I will check in Fedora-10 if it depends on
using commercial nvidia driver, since that is what I'm using and I haven;t
updated 10 for that.

adeona is a nice package. now, because of opendht, it is still in a state
that would be more of a users decision to add and not something that would
be that benafical for a fedora inclusion. [think kde4]
adeona is something that could be helpful in recovery of a laptop, but it
is more of an individual's choice.
as was discussed last year on this list, on a linux system, it may not be
highly efficient. how many thieves are intelligent enough to use linux?
if laptop was stolen just to be sold, linux is probably first thing to be
removed and there goes adeona.
if you have your laptop setup so that it will boot up and connect to internet
with out user intervention, then by all means, install adeona. then if it
gets stolen, pray that crook is dome enough to power up with an internet
connect.

Ogg video editor?
by thomas cameron
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
All -
I am using recordmydesktop (love it, love it, loooooove it!) to do some
desktop videos. My teammates and I have been trying to find a decent
video editor for ogg files. Nothing fancy, I'm *not* a savvy video guy.
Just want to splice some sections together and maybe snip out some "um"
and "uh" stuff.
Anyone got any suggestions?

Thanks!

HDMI audio?
by Neal Becker
F10 on HP dv9000.
I've seen some articles, but still confused how to get hdmi audio.
aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC268 Analog [ALC268 Analog]
Subdevices: 0/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 6: Si3054 Modem [Si3054 Modem]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
No digital audio device shown.
Should it show up under the intel alc268, or would it be the nvidia device
that supplies video to the hdmi?
Hints?
