UBUNTU VS MAC OS PERFORMANCE DRIVER

UBUNTU VS MAC OS PERFORMANCE DRIVER

My mouse driver has this option, and scrolling in inactive windows does work. Many don’t try to properly use the scrollwheel anymore (like, for scrolling – in windows, it only works in the active application Tweak UI -> General -> Prevent applications from stealing focus Hard to describe to a windows user, I guess, let me just say it DOESN’T ANNOY THE HELL OUT OF ME. At least KDE has proper window management – as long as you’re actually WORKING in a window, another window doesn’t pop up in front. If you open 5 word files, and word is ‘working’ on that in the background, it’s pretty annoying to read a website – every time it has finished loading a word file, word pops up on the foreground, even when you’re typing in firefox or whatever. Still cannot understand what’s problem with Word? Never heard any complaints from Word power users (myself I’m not) who work with multiple documents.Īnd the lack of Focus stealing prevention is horrible as well. What IS horrible is that it takes word several minutes to become usable after you selected and opened 5 files at the same time… Sorry, but until Microsoft gets the basics working, I can’t comfortably work in it, so I prefer to work at home – in a decent Desktop Environment (and no – in this regard, even though I prefer KDE – Gnome kicks windows ass as well – anytime…)Īnd having 30 windows open is of course horrible on a single desktop, but yes, that can be done. Why? Aaaah – a floating toolbar!!! Brings me right back to the window I was working on! WTF?!?!? What do I have on top? The first word window, instead of the explorer window which was supposed to be there! WTF?Īnd what about shortcuts? Often, alt-tab doesn’t work – I can’t get out of a word window to the next window. If you have a word file open (working on it, you know…) and are looking for another – you open an explorer window with some files. Don’t even think about it in windows.Īnd if it wasn’t for the performance issues, the window management sucks as well. Well, if I want to search through several pdf’s, I’m used to opening them at the same time – preferably in tabs in konqueror (select 10 files, richtmouseclick -> open in tab). They tell me ‘you want too much too fast’. I experience that every day at work, having freezes and crashes – other ppl don’t.

Yeah, many windows users aren’t really used to multi-tasking, as it doesn’t work very well under windows.
