How to fix the Conflicts with Gnome workspace and compiz workspace

I've had this problem for a while. I admit that I'm still new to Linux, I was recently a Micro$oft windows user, and I'm still learning the ropes around the Ubuntu world. I had no idea that Gnome workspace would have such conflicts with compiz workspace. Although it's a minor thing... I'm a gadget junkie so I just had to have my cube functioning. I was having such a difficult time getting it to work. I went to the Ubuntu forums to searching for the answer and I stumble on a thread that gave me such a relief.

I went to Systems > preference > Compizconfig settings manager and clicked general options.


I had several boxes that I can choose from... General, display settings, Focus & Raise Behavior, Key bindings and finally Desktop size. I've chosen the Desktop Size and on Horizontal virtual size was on 1. To activate your workspace you need to type in how many numbers you would want to have for your workspace. I've chosen 4. After you've exit the Compizconfig settings manager you should notice on the right bottom corner of your screen the amount of workspaces that you've chosen from the Compizconfig settings manager.

How To View Your Hardware Information Using Ubuntu linux

Go to Applications/ Accessories and then to Terminal

Once you have your terminal open you will have the follow text: yourname@yourname-desktop:~$

You will need to go to super user and to do that you need to type sudo su and then your password. you will see "root@yourname-desktop:/home/yourname#" After the pound key (#) you need to type in the code: lshw (I suggest copy and paste) and press enter.

All your hardware information will appear on your terminal.

For this code: lshw -C disk you will get the specific details on your disks.

and finally this code lshw -html > your-file-name.html will put together all of your hardware information and format it into a HTML file. The HTML file will be placed in the following location: /home/yourname

You could rename the html file to anything you want such as: lshw -html>myhardwareinformation.html
