Sparda Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 The default gnome windows manager has this feature built in, and so you can force any window to always be on top. Too bad your not using Linux (Another victory for Linux over Windows ;)). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparda Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 What is the name of the default Gnome window manager? The only window manager I know by name is Compiz and that's because of the publicity it gets for xgl lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparda Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Not berryl, but I tinkered with Xgl on SuSE 10.1 and Ubuntu 6.06 when it first came out (no not Berryl). Since trying it I have seen no point to use it on my desktop as a permanent thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
