Going through disabling and re-enabling various desktop effects options in my preferences, and sometimes logging out and back in again, or restarting X, would often bring it back to what it should be doing. > The only problem I have is it seems to minimize open windows on the > desktop you switch FROM.

For these sorts of niggles, and the rather large drain on the system while trying to use some applications, I now leave the effects off. -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.22.4-65.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.
