Firefox/Gran Paradiso

It should be mentioned on the FAQ that Firefox and it's open source equivalents ignore application rules unless class="Firefox*" is used, regardless of what xprop reports as the class/name.

Openbox Dependencies on Feisty

The Feisty .deb package seems to require dependencies with vesions later than those provided by the repos, even after 'sudo aptitude update' + upgrade. Am I failing to understand something here? --Quixcyn 19:01, 11 September 2007 (EDT)

EDIT: Works when the backports repo is uncommented in /etc/apt/sources.list --Quixcyn 13:15, 12 September 2007 (EDT)

Additional Virtual Desktop Grid Information

The following information might be helpful to add to the second FAQ question, "How do I put my desktops into a grid layout instead of a single row?", as it took me a bit of hunting before I figured out all the errors...

To transform the setlayout.c program to an actual program you can use, run the following:

gcc -lX11 setlayout.c
ln a.out setlayout
./setlayout 0 3 2 0
